Currently, a standard NFS mount (4.3BETA) gives us a sequential writing speed of approx. 2Mb/s (just 400Mb dd'd data, IBM DTLA-307045 with softupdates) and reading speed of 9Mb/s (the maximum). Mounting via TCP gives us 2.5Mb/s. (Is this safe?) Are there any other possibilities to increase the writing speed (by means of tuning NFS...)? regards Jan -- Physikalisches Institut der Universitaet Bonn Nussallee 12 D-53115 Bonn GERMANY To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
