As soon as I mount my NFS file systems, the network load increases to a constant 80%-90% of network bandwidth, even when the file systems are not in use. NFS stats on the client machine (nfsstat -c) produce the following:

Fsstat and Requests are increasing very rapidly. Both the client and server are i386 5.4-STABLE machines. Is this behaviour normal?
Sort of. Some fancy parts of X like file-manager/exporer applications tend to call fstat() a lot, but it's probably tunable, and if you enable NFS attribute caching that will help a lot. "ls /afs", if available, is a wonderful test of whether a program/file-manager is being polite.
Anyway, "top -mio" is likely to be informative. -- -Chuck _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
