I lack much experience with nfs but I suspect I should be seeing much better transfer rates here. Wondering if a few posters could post a timed transfer of know amount of data
This is from a rh9 to yarrow (fully updated) I'll show exports file at the end:
root # du -sh $rea/News/agent/nntp/enews* 169M /home/reader/News/agent/nntp/enews.newsguy.com
root # time cp -a $rea/News/agent/nntp/enews*/ /EXP_root real 12m26.120s user 0m0.340s sys 0m13.990s
So 169MB in 12 1/2 minutes.
cat /etc/exports: / reader(rw,async,insecure_locks,no_root_squash) /home reader(rw,async,insecure_locks,no_root_squash) /var reader(rw,async,insecure_locks,no_root_squash) /mnt/exp reader(rw,async,insecure_locks,no_root_squash) /usr reader(rw,async,insecure_locks,no_root_squash) /tmp reader(rw,async,insecure_locks,no_root_squash)
What does /proc/mount say? What does "mii-tool eth0" or "ethtool eth0" say? Are you dropping packets? (ifconfig and ping )
