I have very very fast network and is testing NFS2 over this kind of network. I noticed that for standard work like read/write a large file, compile kernels, the performance of NFS2 is good. But if I try to decompress kernel tar file. The standard ext2 takes 28s while NFS2 takes 81s. Also, if I remove the kernel source code tree, ext2 takes 19s but NFS2 takes 44s.
Why? (You can assume that network is very fast. ) Is there any improvements in NFS3/4 on this issue? If so, how? Many thanks in advance for your kind help! xin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
