Web Application intermittently having a performance issue

From the tcp dump at the server end, I am seeing a lot of traces on TCP Dup ACK, retransmission and out of order being flag out at the pcap file

The connection made is via VPN client to the Web Application server. Tried few scenario where we access directly bypass the PaloAlto firewall and we don't see this traces on tcp dups and retransmission. For now the asymmetric routing is not the case. I'm suspecting something need to be tweak at the firewall either adjusting the MSS or disable server response inspection (DSRI)

Is there any other useful tips on how to ensure less tcp dups and retransmission would occurs if the request made by the client need to pass through Palo Alto firewall?

were you able to capture ngress and egress on the firewall, and trace the global counters at the same time? that may shed some light on what's going on

 

some of those Lenghts seem very large, are you allowing jumbo frames ? You could set TCP MSS to lower the payload

 

you mention asymmetric routing, how are you sure that is not the issue?

You may check globalprotect logs for keepalive issues:

The other thing is check for MTU issues:

If you have a newer version of the firewall 9.1 or newer or newer you can see the latency from the firewall:
