I would like to know too! Just received an email about extending my update protection. If the project really is dead, then I don't want to spend $25 on it. |

I do think, however, that Aprelium should do some debugging on this problem. It is entirely possible Abyss is at fault as I've tried sending files via HTTP from Abyss over my local network before and ... |

I have experienced a similar problem - not a bother - while browsing or downloading on my local network using Abyss - a problem that seems common to many Windows specific servers. (I can fix this with ... |

Yes I totally understand and I think it's a speed and/or latency issue. Abyss doesn't seem to handle very high speed with moderate latency very well (classic Long Fat Pipe issue perhaps?). Btw, the se ... |

We run several sites on the server of which some use php (fastcgi), mysql, cms etc. The tests I did were on a virtual host with php scripting disabled, just plain html. |

No, I'm not getting fooled. My vdsl2 connection (a private 2wire high quality 300m copper line to our server farm) has been up and running for over six months now and I always get steady 6MB/sec throu ... |

The download speed is indeed 2-3 times faster with Apache. I will do a re-test as soon as possible and count the seconds that each download lasts. I will let you know.
I'm doing the tests from a Wi ... |

Abyss definitely can't be quite the bottleneck you're suggesting. I've downloaded a file through my LAN at 45Mbps before.
But how come I can only download at 2MB/sec when the server is running Abys ... |

Global and hosts bandwidth settings are both unset. With IE7 I'm able to get 2MB/s off Abyss and 6MB/s off Apache. Firefox seems to be a bit slower. Now the bottleneck could be the connection between ... |

That two open connection thing with the browser would make sense if it happened with Apache too..

Yeah, well I'm not surprised but thanks for testing it. I think higher latency times might help in this case, since you are connecting from the UK, right?
Anyways, if I do a test download I get ma ... |

You can try to visit http://www.pari.fi

I want to add that file download speed with Abyss seems to be considerably slower and more unstable than with Apache. I was using the SendBufferSize directive in Apache, but haven't found such setting ... |

We are in a process of migrating from Apache 1.3.xx to Abyss X2 2.5. The server is hosting about a hundred virtual domains/websites and has traffic of approximately 20-25 gigabytes/month on a 100Mbit ... |
