Comment (by jstressman):
One other thing for me that seemed to really improve responsiveness and
performance was to disable my 2 interfaces that I wasn't using.
I disabled atheros0 and marvell_yukon0 and only use marvell_yukon1.
I'd have to do more testing to see if I could give a more solid
explanation of this and confirm that it is indeed the case... but Web+ at
least seemed to respond considerably quicker and more smoothly once I'd
disabled the unused interfaces.
I'm still using the old driver at the moment, so I'd want to retest this
to figure out whether it was the new driver or the old driver that I saw
this behavior under... and if it's really related to the driver at all, or
some kind of bad routing, or just Web+ trying an invalid interface before
timing out and trying a good one... or even something like trying an
invalid ipv6 route before falling back to a working ipv4... I really have
no idea at the moment, but wanted to point out what I thought I saw in
case it gives anyone an idea.
One other idea I had was that it was related to the atheros driver
spitting out 1kB a second in verbose logs to the syslog, and disabling
that interface shut it up and increased performance on my remaining
interface(s)?
