OPNsense device:
OPNsense ver: 16.7.r2
CPU: Atom D510 (1.6Ghz), DDR2 667Mhz
Chipset: Intel ICH9R Chipset
NICs: 2 x Intel 82574L 1GBs
Disk: OPNsense installed on USB flash key. But I created a 600MB ramdisk
I've made some simple file transfers using plain FTP to test FreeBSD on the above board.
I'm using the native ftpd server. Files are read/write to/from the ramdisk.
On the LAN side I get these number:
Download: 75MB/s (CPU usage 50%)
Upload: 32MB/s (CPU usage 20%)
On the WAN side:
Download: 63MB/s (CPU usage 50%)
Upload: 15MB/s (CPU usage 20%)
I'm not happy about the CPU usage....this is unencrypted plain FTP!
Neither happy about the upload speed.
Upload have a big impact on the system even though the CPU usage is only "20%". The web-gui locks up. Even the SSH console freeze sometimes.
Maybe a driver problem? But the LAN download performance is rather ok, although again the CPU usage is to high.
Did anyone else made a plan data-transfer test like mine?
New test 2:
Installed a clean original FreeBSD 10.3
Download: 103MB/s
Update: 41MB/s
But still 20-50% cpu usage.
Using iperf3, now I get more than 100MB/s both ways...I guess it was a ftp-client-server issue then :-)
