[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 58943, post: 714583"] I tried Comodo FW last night. Vanilla, then with Cruel's settings from the video. Both times I noticed degradation of network performance. Specifically, ping performance was atrocious in both configurations. ping -t to 8.8.8.8 went from 6-8ms up to 30-50ms. Pings to my COLO went from 9-11 seconds up to 60-90 seconds. Pings to the primary distribution node of my ISP jumped 4 fold. As soon as CF was uninstalled or the FWD was disabled, things went back to normal. The machine tested was a fresh WIn10 installation with nothing installed other than CF. Just for grins, I also tested with disabled WD and WF, same result. To me, that makes it unusable. I'm not sure if it's the case of it not compatible with highspeed connections (1000Mbps), or perhaps it doesn't like the buffer bloat from my ISP or whatever. I wonder if it isn't localized and other people just don't monitor ICMP as aggressively, or even pay attention to it at all. [/QUOTE]
