Subject TcpRemoteBufferSize
Author guido.klapperich@t-online.de
We use IBReplicator for replication and since we use encryption for the
connection from the sales representative to the company network we have
massive performanceproblems with the replication. One of the network
admins told me, that the problem could be, that there are sent a lot of
small packets while replication. I have seen in the firebird.conf is a
parameter TcpRemoteBufferSize to enlarge the packet size. But in the
docu is written "Use this parameter—with caution and complete
comprehension of its effects on network performance!—if you need to
enlarge or reduce the TCP/IP packet size for send and receive buffers".
Can anybody tell me, what are the effects on network performance?
