I’d asked about using a VPS to get better routing to my homelab in this post: lemmy.world/post/1424540

I’ve narrowed down my problem- if i use a subdomain in my caddyfile, performance is 1/3 or worse compared to just the root.

example.com {reverse_proxy 192.168.1.57}

will saturate my gigabit lan connection at 980ish on a 5gUW connection i get my advertised 50 mbit or more

librespeed.example.com {reverse_proxy 192.168.1.57}

i get 220-250 megabits on my internal lan. the same 5gUW connection will only get 7 or 8 mbit.

It’s strange to me that everything seems to work just fine, but it’s just slow. Anyone got any ideas?
