Hello,

I'm transferring a sizeable amount of data from an Oracle 11 DBMS over a VPN tunnel; the client software is also Oracle 11. Both client and server are running Linux. There row widths in the involved tables vary somewhat, but BLOBs aren't involved.

When inspecting the data in Wireshark, I see TNS packages with sizes between 350 and 450; the TCP window size is 501. I find this to be rather small drops of data.

Are TNS packages this small normal? Received on Thu Nov 19 2009 - 11:06:21 CST
