IMO use a unify OS for the optimal NFS performance. If u select FreeBSD NFS server, then select FreeBSD nfs clients, and run realserver [of linux] there. Linux emulation is very handy and produces good results there.
In any case you will have to tune up the NFS server/client with a lot of trial and error..it took me over a month to find the optimal parameters for my cluster... To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
