Windows registry settings
This page describes best practice for configuring Windows TCP\IP related parameters to archive the best performance with Windows guests. Those parameters are unrelated to kvm\VirtIO drivers , rather general Windows settings. After changing those setting reboot is required for the changes to effect the system.
Registry settings
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AFD\Parameters] "DefaultSendWindow"=dword:00100000 "DefaultReceiveWindow"=dword:00100000 "FastSendDatagramThreshold"=dword:00004000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters]
"Tcp1323Opts"=dword:00000001
"TcpWindowSize"=dword:00100000
- Tcp1323Opts - allows the scaling of the TCP window above 16k. For more info read Tcp1323Opts
- "DefaultSendWindow", "DefaultReceiveWindow" and "TcpWindowSize" control TCP window size
- "FastSendDatagramThreshold" - controls fast UDP transmit.
