You can override this by adding the "async" option to the NFS
export.. when you do this NFS will buffer the writes and is actually
then faster than Samba (probably down to the fact that its using UDP
instead of TCP).. When buffering the writes in any system there is a
chance of data loss in the event of a power failure or a server
crash..
No hits on a grep for `sync' in either `man nfs' or `man nfsd'
Where might I read about that option?
Take a look at "man exports" and look at the "async" option.. The "sync"
option is the default..
