: Except non Linux NFS servers where writes not equal to their page size : causes performance to dive.
I heared about it and even tested SS20/Solaris-2.3 (well, not very carefully) Did not found no performance peaks at 4096/8192, only monotonical grow. I suspect, that it will expose only when you'll write to sparc server from ten linux boxes.
