Transfer performance issues

First let me say that I love CoreFTP! I have been looking for an interface like this for a while and am glad I found you!

I have a slight problem, however. Downloading I am only seeing about 240KB/s where on a straight FTP (albiet from a Linux host) I am seeing around 340KB/s from the same site. I tried to increase the CPS settings figuring I was getting limited, but when I go from the default of 300000000 to say 400000000, the integer wraps and I see no performance increase.

I am on 4Mb cable with a 100Mb internal network.

Thanks!

Well that is what I had assumed was happening, they were being limited. I changed the receive buffer and told the transfer to reconnect, but am still only seeing about 240KB/s.

Do I need to get out of the program completely to make changes or should reconnecting change things?

CP and I did a little work via private messages, but I thought I would update the group on what I found. From my last message...

Chris,

I am always amazed at the power of the Internet. Did a real quick Google search on Windows XP TCP performance and got the following link...

Did what it said, rebooted and Wham! A magical 383MB/s with CoreFTP!!!!! This matches (fairly closely) what I was getting with unmodified Linux on another machine. Spread the word, I certainly will!
