Hello. I'm using an app that reads big files in small chunks. When using NFS this takes a huge amount of time, while I see user cpu roughly at 50% and system CPU again at roughly 50%. I suspect NFS is sending packets for each read (even 1 bytes) and this might generate a big overhead. Is it (or might it be so)? If yes, is there a way to set it up to perform some read-ahead? bye & Thanks av.
