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!


Kevin Day
