I do know that an Ultra with FW-1 can handle 100baseT ok.
It could either be a TCP issue, but likely is a 'proxy

Hi Chuck,

what is your definition for "Ultra with FW-1 can handle 100baseT ok" ?

Do you think a Sun Ultra with http-gw is able to forward ~80MBit/s at
the application level, including changes to the HTTP-docs
(e.g. redirecting URLs) ?
