My test of: cp /var/crash/vmcore.0 /mnt/nfs ; gzip /mnt/nfs/vmcore.0 Now won't crash the server. I'm also seeing a lower load average during heavy nfs traffic on the client, and slightly faster transfers. Kernel from Feb 4: Load average while copying 80M file over 100BaseTX line: 0.40 Time: 1 minute, 21 seconds Load average while copying 80M file over 10BaseT line: 0.38 Time: could not complete without panic Kernel from today: Load average while copying 80M file over 100BaseTX line: 0.31 Time: 59 seconds Load average while copying 80M file over 10BaseT: 0.30 Time: 3 minutes, 41 seconds (note, this segment has a lot of other traffic on it as well) Also: gcc test.c ; ./a.out ; gcc test.c No longer crashes my system! :) Whatever you did John, keep doing it. :) Thanks!
