OK, OK, I picked a bad test. 

For comparison, here are the results copying from NFS and CIFS mounts
alongside the original scp test figures.


                scp             NFS             CIFS    

slug            1.3 MB/s        3.9 MB/s        4.2 MB/s

DNS 320         3.6 MB/s        7.6 MB/s        5.6 MB/s

I confess I am puzzled by the difference between the two devices using
CIFS. I have repeated the tests and get the same results. It seems odd
that CIFS should be faster than NFS on the slug, but so much slower on
the DNS. I guess that may be down to implementation (or version)
differences.
