I didn't set it, that's for sure :) I got the option lines from /proc/mounts, if there is any way I can get more/other information please advise. 2.6.14.7: rw,v3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,intr,udp,lock,addr=... 2.6.15: rw,v3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,intr,lock,proto=udp,addr=... Except for some formatting (proto=udp insted of udp) I fail to see any difference. The way I see it, it seems like caching on the client side fails completely if the read requests are not aligned (to some buffer/block/page/whatever). > I don't have a 2.6.15 kernel to run with, but on a recent git pull, I > get a total of 6 GETATTR calls when I run your nfsbench program. The performance regression is present on 2.6.16.1 too. Do you have a released kernel you can test with (2.6.1[56].*), or can I somehow get the kernel you're testing with, just so that we test on the same kernel? > The number of READ calls is 1, and the number of WRITE calls is 161 (I'm > running with 64k wsize). I can't set 64k wsize: puffin:~# mount -o rw,wsize=65536,udp sparrow:/exported/joe /mnt puffin:~# cat /proc/mounts ... sparrow:/exported/joe /mnt nfs rw,v3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,intr,lock,proto=udp,addr=sparrow 0 0 puffin:~# Server is running a patched 2.6.11.11 kernel - could that be what's preventing me from 64k wsize? What happens if you run with 32k rsize/wsize? -- / jakob - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
