Notes

SUT Notes

IIS settings: maximum performance.
IIS Home Directory: Access for Read & Write, Scripts & Executables.
IIS Virtual Directory spec99 points back to web server root, low application protection.
IIS Logging: W3C Extended logging, defaults plus bytes sent.

Operating System Notes

Tuning parameters:
- Tcpip/Parameters/MaxHashTableSize=0x2000, sets TCB hash table size to 8,192 entries, default is 512.
- Tcpip/Parameters/TcpTimedWaitDelay=0x3c, sets TIME_WAIT parameter to 60 seconds (non-RFC 1122), default is 240.
- Tcpip/Parameters/MaxFreeTwTcbs=1098000, sets maximum number of TIME_WAIT tcbs to 1,098,000.
- Tcpip/Parameters/MaxUserPort = 0xfffe, sets maximum open ports to 65534.
- Tcpip/Parameters/TcpWindowSize = 65535, sets TCP send/receive window size, default 8192.
- Tcpip/Parameters/NumTcbTablePartitions = 32, sets number of independent TCB table segments, default 4.
- Inetinfo/Parameters/ObjectCacheTTL=0xfffff, sets IIS object cache timeout in seconds, default 10 minutes
- Inetinfo/Parameters/ListenBacklog=1000, default 25.
- Inetinfo/Parameters/MemCacheSize=2000, sets IIS cache to 2000KB, default sized dynamically.
- Inetinfo/Parameters/MaxCachedFileSize=1000000, sets max file size IIS caches to 1,000,000 bytes, no default.
Network interrupts affinitized one NIC per processor.

HTTP API Notes

Microsoft ISAPI for IIS 5.0 compiled with VC++ 6.0, code optimization = Pentium Pro.
Code same as Dell-19991214.zip in Dynamic API Sources directory.

Hardware Notes

One 9GB 10KRPM disk for OS and paging, 2 for logs, and 4 striped for web pages.

Client Notes

Tcpip/Parameters/MaxUserPort = 0xfffe, sets maximum open port to 65534.
