I am trying to identify the source of a slowdown for an upload to Amazon
S3 from a Windows 2008 server. Packet captures seem to indicate the
problem is with the TCP window size. When I manually increase the TCP
window size on another machine, I am easily able to get maximum
bandwidth utilization. But, for some reason, this 2008 machine won�t
increase the window size beyond 64K.
I can�t increase the TCP Window size on the 2008 machine because of the
new and �improved� auto tcp tuning. Is there something else I should be
looking for that could be causing the window size to not be scaled any
higher?
Are you sure it's not using RFC1323? Do you have a sample trace that
you can upload (in pcap format). TCP setup and a few sampling during
the upload will be fine. Maybe it's scaling and you're not looking at
the scaling factor?
