The NFS Howto is pretty cryptic about how to read nfsd thread
statistics. AFAICT, if I have the following output:
$ cat /proc/net/rpc/nfsd
rc 0 832888 1838270
fh 0 0 0 0 0
io 1230212044 2485604185
th 16 205835 4865.996 293.876 452.380 4.160 166.324 138.216 118.876 126.344

rpc 2671158 0 0 0 0

502 120 74 6 0 3096
proc4 2 0 0
The last ten entries on the th line are supposed to be "deciles" which
presumably tell me how much work is being done at each percent of thread
usage in 10% increments. Bizarre, and poorly-explained, but okay. What's
not obvious to me is whether the "top three deciles" are the first three
on the left, or the last three on the right.
In other words, have my threads been maxed out for 4865.996 seconds, or
857.204? And is there a better idea to determine if I need more (or
fewer) nfsd threads?
