      The problem is not the disk itself.  I had serious performance problems with pfsense and postfix package on ibm 3650. After enabling soft updates I coud get all disk performance.

      Try scp a file from and to pfsense to check how fast you can go.

      SFTP will copy to and from at 35MB/s

        Just tested a download on my PC. 400-500KB from WAN, only 5-10KB from cache.

        Also tested a local cp, 1GB file was completed in under 30 sec.

        I think something else is wonky here.

          If u see the web page slow, try enable "resolv dns v4" check box, some times this cause issues.

          Remember that the proxy will use first the RAM and will use the disk once he decide is time to send the object to hd.

            Everything pulling from cache is at 5KB/s now. I have to disable squid for now. Hopefully someone has more thoughts as to why this is happening.

              Have you try the stable build?
              You are using the devel build.

                WOW! Problem solved!

                Went to wipe the raid and install as raid 0

                Found a failed drive and removed it. set up as raid 0 and did a fresh install, set everything back up manually. rebooted and it works like a champ.

                Issue was I was running in degraded mode. I still find it interesting everything else was working like a champ.

                  Great, if u are going to have this for a long time, move to raid1 for your own safety.
                  my 2 cents!!!

                      Now I get the Squid error page quite often, and certain sites seems to take longer to load.

                      It happens most frequently on these forums and on steam.
