Could you explain a little more how you did this? i.e. reference a url / blog 
post showing what was upgraded and what you didn't (especially if there's a 
REASON oyu didn't upgrade pieces).

We've been on snv86 and had great cifs performance, great iscsi performance, 
and 2 or 3 cifs stability issues over the past year+ (since snv86 came out).  
We tried upgrading, lost the root fs, reinstalled snv125 per recommendation of 
latest develpoment build and have had 3 days of solid problems. 

For example CIFS performance has been unacceptably slow for many operations, 
but one highly confusing case is a sql server on Windows Server 2003 - copy 
from command prompt is fast, sql doing a backup is extremely slow (<1 megabit). 
 This same backup under snv86 was disk bound, now the daily backups can't 
complete before the next day (instead of < an hour).

We've been making tcp/ip changes on computers for days but no real solution. We 
were seeing as much as .6 seconds between packets on network capture, with some 
tuning that's reduced.  Even without the tuning I now can't get .6 seconds 
<sigh>. 

Are there known issues with snv_125 that I'm missing in my search? 

Anything I can do before posting the output from snoop and cifs-gendiag? I 
never had to do any of that on snv86, all just worked as expected.
