If you are getting poor speeds using wget and just overall throughput on the new server and the network settings are all correct on the switch, it may be necessary to tune your sysctl tcp window scaling options. We found that the following settings work well when added to /etc/sysctl.conf file.
Code:
net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=1 net.core.rmem_max=104857600 net.core.wmem_max=104857600 net.core.rmem_default=65536 net.core.wmem_default=65536 net.ipv4.tcp_rmem=4096 524288 104857600 net.ipv4.tcp_wmem=4096 524288 104857600 net.ipv4.tcp_mem=8388608 8388608 8388608 net.core.netdev_max_backlog=30000 net.ipv4.tcp_no_metrics_save=1 net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps=0 net.ipv4.tcp_sack=0 net.ipv4.route.flush=1
The above tuned various things -- the most important is enabling TCP window scaling, the next 4 values bump the TX/RX buffer sizes up, the last ones are various changes to cut down on CPU usage per-packet.

Dedicated Semi-Managed Server Review I've been using AYKSolutions for about 2 years now and their support and servers have been great. They assisted me with the transition of all my websites and databases from my old server onto their system with no problem. If I ever need them for support or a change they respond fast and always keep me up to date with the status of my support ticket. I highly recommend using this company especially if you're looking for someone to assist with server management. Best of all their cost is great!
I have had my hosting with AYK since 2006, and it has by far been the best experience I have ever had with any hosting company. The support is always spot on and available around the clock, excellent for me since I'm always working on things at odd hours. They make upgrading to fit needs very clean and easy, the cost is excellent for services received, and they have me as a customer for life.
