File Upload Question

We have just moved one of our applications in our development environment to sit behind the BIGIP instead of a SunONE Proxy server acting as a reverse proxy. Things are working, but the developers are seeing decreased performance with respect to file uploads.

 

 

Does file upload traffic get processed by iRules? Could they be slowing things down? Are there any iRule changes I could make to increase performance here, or is this an issue I should raise with F5 support?

 

 

Just to note, we realize that performance is an issue affected by many possible factors, but thought we'd check here just to explore all angles.

 

 

Thanks.

  • Right on - we got a good profile for "tcp_fast" from our support contact. Here it is FYI:

    
    profile tcp tcp_fast {
      bandwidth delay disable
      nagle disable
      recv window 65535
      send buffer 65535
      proxy buffer high 131072
      proxy buffer low 98304
      slow start disable
    }
