Hello Jeff, 

thanks for the feedback and suggestion,

no, I am not on VPN and there is no other tunnel between server and client

relevant interface is eth0 in my case. settining mtu size however does not seem 
to have any effect of files stalling; 

root@lmlpt:/home/lmijovic# ip addr | grep eth0 | head -n 1
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP 
qlen 1000

cp of file to afs stalls at file size of 1329 bytes

root@lmlpt:/home/lmijovic# ip link set dev eth0 mtu 1200
root@lmlpt:/home/lmijovic# ip addr | grep eth0 | head -n 1                      
                                                                                
                         
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1200 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP 
qlen 1000  
+ a couple of different sizes (500,1000)

still stalls at wc -c 1329 (while 1328 in all cases gets copied fine/wo 
stalling)

Best, Liza
