Configuring tcp/ip on cpu & memory constrained devel. sys.

[Jeffrey Chimene <use@reply.to>]

Hi:

Using Debian 3.0 on Alpha 4/233 64Mb w/ mysql, thttpd, perl, mozilla

Problem: 
		 Most of the time, the browser does not recieve a response to
		 HTTPD POST requests. Eventually, if I close the socket and
		 re-establish a few times, I get an answer.

netstat -eotac shows the thttpd rcv queue is non-zero, ps ax shows the
cgi script executes, but the xmit queue is usually zero.

I notice that the less load on the cpu, the more often things work. 

Are there any parameters I can configure to make sure the reply
doesn't get dropped?

Here is the current configuration:

$ sudo ifconfig lo
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:8020  Metric:1
          RX packets:1152 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:1152 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
          RX bytes:685757 (669.6 KiB)  TX bytes:685757 (669.6 KiB)

tia,
