We are using an 8 Mbps connection(Wan) with an upload rate of 6 Mbps.With pfsense 2.03, the upload rate is really slow like 30 Kbps.Is there a configuration in pfsense to increase the upload speed?
Please note that we are not using any traffic shaper or some thing like that in pfsense.

You are doing "NAT on a stick". pfSense, unfortunately, does not have good support for this configuration yet. Your configuration of two different interfaces will not work -- on the same VLAN, they'll see each other's packets.
Here's a horrible hack if it's VLAN 1. Set the outside vNic to tagged VLAN and the other to untagged. If that doesn't solve the problem, flip the ports. (Note that you should do this locally, not remotely, as you may lose contact.)
The following simple fix made a world of difference in T-Mobile Wifi Calling quality on my iPhone 5S on my Asus RT-AC66U! This is based on the findings in the original question here, as well as a T-Mobile support link.
- Go to QoS Setup for your router, default is:
http://192.168.1.1/QoS_EZQoS.asp - Enable QoS
- Add the following User-Defined QoS rules as 'Highest' priority and move everything else to High or lower. Below is a picture of the defaults, after I completed step 3.

There's no such thing as a configuration to increase upload speed. Most often, if there are no limiter or traffic shaper configs in place, that's because you have a duplex mismatch. Your provider expects you to force speed and duplex and you're set to auto, or vice versa. That tends to affect upload more significantly than download. Make sure your WAN port is set how your provider expects it to be.
