(it's at home) Try to tune your NFS mounts in Linux, make sure they are trying TCP and up the read/write size, check Linux's NFS tuning paramters (it's probably in some non-obvious place in /proc) Also you can play with the FreeBSD NFS options mainly by tweaking them via 'sysctl' man sysctl sysctl -a | grep nfs good luck, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
