In general, NFS fixes for the -stable branch have been kept :> up to date with the work in -current, but -current ought to have much :> better NFS performance then stable. : :Performance = transfer rates and latency? Or just generalized stability? :I haven't had the time to watch -CURRENT all that closely, but I'll be :happy when some of the new functionality becomes -STABLE. : :Thanks for the reply, :- Ryan There were a few bugs that we couldn't fix in stable, mainly related to localhost NFS mounts and garbage showing up past EOF when mmap()ing a file over NFS. Normal use of NFS will not hit the bugs. -Current fixes those bugs plus adds some major performance optimizations. I'd stick with 3.x for the moment. Move to 4.x after 4.1 is released. -Matt Matthew Dillon :-- : Ryan Thompson : Systems Administrator, Accounts : Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 : : SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com : #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 : : : :To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org :with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message : To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
