I think there's a small increase in download speed, I didn't really notice it, thanks anyway

@Amiwell79

I applied the "speed up" patches on ABIv0 AROSTCP. Completly untested. If it works, great. If not, we'll have to live with the current AROSTCP.

if it's possible!

yes deadwood

Well, I didn't really plan to make updates to ABIv0. I assume you are asking to port the "speed up" patch to ABIv0?

I wanted to ask if it's possible to get an update of arostcp if I'm not asking too much for abiv0 i386. I know the transition to 64-bit is underway, but I have some netbooks that still work well, and it would be nice to have this update. I'm only asking for this.

Just added the new tcp stack to mu i5 lapop. On fast.com I'm getting 16 Mbps vs 15 Mbps with the old stack, but this is over wifi.

Cheers,
Nigel.

I've hit peaks of 20 Mb in download, the stability seems great, I don't have any problems on my system

Sure, thanks! I’ve been using Aros exclusively for years, and it’s really something special and rewarding.

So I guess you are happy now

another test

Glad it works for you. Please continue testing it for stability.

another test

I downloaded amitcp, I use an rtl-8139 card, and I noticed a speed increase even on this site

Attached are results on tests with rtl8169.device

Note that fast.com by default is using 8 connections so it can fully saturate your link. Odyssey download and wget use 1 connection so thay will always be slower then fast.com test. Browsing with Odyssey uses configurable number of connection (16 by default).

FYI: The fix is the commit from Kalamatee that Neil pointed to.

@Amiwell79

Try this build. It give ~3x speedup on rtl8169.device.

Amiwell: You can monitor the speed using tools like this one:

Or this one, but it doesn't work well on OWB
https://www.speed...

ah ok! Anyway, I realized it also depends on which server you download from

That's 2.64 mbps

I see this I use owb and the driver is RTL_8139
