Hi there @iluminatethesky & @IICookieGII,
Thank you for your time and input.
I have managed to set most of the settings and am still fidling around with some.
Can you please be more specific on the part about configuring the NIC for high performance, as I have done exactly what you mentioned there about "green ethernet".
Can you please mention specifically more options which you actually adjusted and how?
Is this article good enough as a "guide" Ethernet performance guide. I am asking as it mentions the name of Flex radio systems, which is not what I have.
I have Intel's Killer E2500 controller. I am also asking as I am not sure on which settings should I choose for:
Maximize all adapter buffers and descriptors - Set these values as high as possible for maximum performance. On PCs with limited physical memory, this may have a negative impact as send buffers consume system memory. On most systems, however, the maximum setting can be applied without significantly reducing available memory.
Receive Buffers: The buffer size of system memory that can be used by the adapter for received packets, which can be increased to help improve the performance of outgoing network traffic, but it consumes system memory.
Transmit Buffers: The buffer size of system memory that can be used by the adapter for sending packets, which can be increased to help improve the performance of outgoing network traffic, but it consumes system memory.
Receive Descriptors: Sets the number of Receive Descriptors that are allocated in the host memory and used to store the received packets. This can be increased if performance of received traffic is lacking.
Transmit Descriptors: Sets the number of Transmit Descriptors that enable the adapter to track transmit packets in the system memory. This can be increased if performance of transmission traffic is lacking.
Yes I am aware at what it says, and that it describes what each of them does, however I wouldn't like to screw up the "Internet" behavior as it can have a negative impact as well.
Other than that, I have a general question about your personal preference of updating the W10 build version to 1809, as we know so far it causes quite a bit of issues and even Microsoft pulled it off.
For other things mentioned here I am trying to find what suits me the best.
Thank you in advance for your time!
