Windows and network speed

He's got a point there. What Linux did you use for the test.
quote:First off, Longhorn's TCP/IP implementation has been re-written and offers a 30% increase in performance on TCP packets and 10% increased performance on UDP packets.

This is bullshit. When stating techinical facts such as that (MS has re-written TCP/IP) for Longhorn, and when posting statistics (30% and 10% performance increase), I demand to know where you got those numbers and where you got the info that TCP/IP is being re-written for Windows.
I personally do not know nor care if it is being re-written. I don't think you know either unless you work for Microsoft. Without you stating your sources for that info, I claim that you're full of bullshit (no offense), because there are by far more reasons to doubt MS re-writing it in Longhorn than there are reasons to believe otherwise. Please cite sources for any technical claims you make.

Close, very close and the figures are accurate. Microsoft hasn't released any information on the statistics yet and probably won't until it's nearing completion.

So where the fuck did you get the numbers from?? Other than your imagination?

Either you used a java client to do the speed tests (i'll save my java rantings for another time), your ISP does local caching, or you're just bullshitting to try and put Microsoft down.

No, no, and no. Run your own tests, tell me what you found out. I've told you what I've found out. Just because you don't seem to like what I'm saying doesn't mean it's not true.
You don't like it? Give me data. That would be the logical response.
Linux system was RH9 with kernel 2.4.20.

hehe i just use p2p progs for windozeXP and linux slack, no much difference in pumping speed.. well linux maybe few KB's faster, but if there is difference, it is not big btw
