| |
Hello,
I experience performance problems when using nfs with a Linux/Alpha box as client, and a Solaris server. Reading is perfect (1.1 MB/s on the 10baseT ethernet) but writing is slow (~200 KB/s). A Solaris client on the same ethernet, with the same server, gets reasonnable figures (~900 KB/s both reading and writing). rsize and wsize are set to 8192.
I have root access to the client (a RedHat 5.1 Linux box, using kernel 2.1.103, and a Tulip PCI ethernet card). I already experienced such bad performance with Solaris servers and Linux clients, but this is the first time I have the occasion to perform some tcpdump on one of the machines.
So, please developpers give me the few magic commands that I could run and that would provide you all the information needed to speed things up.
