Hi,

Just a heads up that after a commit going into stable/8 in a few
minutes, you'll need to do a fresh kernel build, starting at
"config GENERIC", including rebuilding the NFS related modules.

Sensational! With this update, I finally get NFS client performance
as good as (or better than) 7.x, and I have a warm, fuzzy feeling
about 8.x at last. (Except for SCHED_ULE, which gives terrible
performance on a single-core machine with a compute-bound process
running in the background.) Thanks! -- George Mitchell

There's a weird (and you need to have a weird sense of humour to
enjoy it) flick called "Stranger than Paradise".

Anyhow, the above sounds like good news, although the commit it
was related to should have had no effect on perf, from what I can
see.

Assuming that you are using the regular 8.n client (and not the new
one), there have been some commits related to krpc bugs that could have
fixed cases which would have caused poor perf., although all of those
(except one where a client would hang on a TCP reconnect attempt) are in
8.2.

So, happy to hear it works for you now, but have no idea why;-) rick

Full disclosure: I was upgrading from 8.2-PRERELEASE, so it might well
have been some earlier change instead of this one.          -- George
