Thank you for the clear answer. Anyway, trying to act on tcp.sendspace
isn't affecting the upload capabilities of my OpenBSD server.
I tried downloading a file through httpd, via ftp but results are
still disappointing: 60-70 kbps between two boxes on the same switch.

The box is going to become a webserver, could you please give me more
hints about tuning network performance?

Thanks
