| |
I'm running a front end spam filtering service and I get a lot of incoming connections but not a lot of volume of traffic. I'm experiencing some high loads and I think it might be related to the volume of connections it's processing. I often will be connected to 2500 email servers at once and a lot more that are trying to connect and being denied.
My question - are there any optimizations I can do to make the TCP faster for high number of short lived connections?
Also - how much do iptable entries slow things down and is there any optimizations for that?
