Ok, thanks Tim, which SPC are you talking about? SPC-1 and SPC-2 don't test NAS, those are block perf. SPECsfs97 v2/v3 and sfs2008 have no OpenStorage results.
If there are standard storage benchmarks out there, I would not be here asking folks. To your point, how is the OpenSolaris native CIFS vs Linux Samba then? (if you think this is more apple-to-apple than they both run Samba) Again, I am here to explore data, not to argue, if I give you a dozen configurations, could you get me the performance estimates and how the estimates come from? I didn't think that route is possible.

Let's say OpenSolaris doing Samba vs. Linux doing Samba, in CIFS performance. (so I can link to the Win2008 CIFS numbers and NetApp CIFS numbers myself.) Is there any data to this specific point? Thanks! z So, you wouldn't use Samba on opensolaris, you'd use the native cifs stack. Then we have to look at the system itself. How much ram? How many and what kind of CPU's? How much disk on the backend? What kind of disk on the back end? I don't think you're going to find the numbers you're looking for to be quite honest. And even if you did, I don't know how usable they'd really be. I'd start by digging through the spc benchmarks. --Tim
