Hi,
1) Have you made sure there are no NFS rexmits reported by nfsstat -c ?
2) I haven't run thruput tests lately, but when I tested NFS/UDP thruput a
few months ago, I routinely got over 70MB/s sequential read thruput
and over 80MB/s sequential write thruput (against filers). I used 32KB
blocksizes. -current improves upon this significantly, by about 25%-30%.
Send me private e-mail and we can discuss NFS client tunings.
