I've got 4 RH7.1 boxes accessing an NFS mount from a Solaris7 box. I'm 
using some file caching and such to improve performance, and am trying 
to find out more about the unknown effects of what I am doing. One thing 
that I notice is that the solaris nfsstat provides much more RPC 
information than the one on my RH boxes. Is there a way to get this same 
information on the RH boxes? Specifically:
on solaris:
nfsstat gives me:
Client rpc:
Connection oriented:
calls       badcalls    badxids     timeouts    newcreds    badverfs
0           0           0           0           0           0
timers      cantconn    nomem       interrupts
0           0           0           0
Connectionless:
calls       badcalls    retrans     badxids     timeouts    newcreds
8           1           0           0           0           0
badverfs    timers      nomem       cantsend
0           5           0           0

on RH:
Client rpc stats:
calls      retrans    authrefrsh
3135       0          0


Another question, which may be OT and better suited to an NFS list, is 
how/where is the file cache kept? In other words, let's say I'm caching 
all the file attributes on an 80Gig filesystem for 10 hours... where is 
that cache? RAM/Swap/Local disk? How can I track what, if any, impact 
this rather large and long caching scheme has on overall system 
performance? Where can I find the nfs client cache stats on the RH boxes?

Again, I realise that some of this may be considered OT, apologies, but 
any and all help and suggestions are appreciated!
