I've found the FAQ has a couple questions about NFS. Namely, "Files written to NFS filesystems are corrupt" and "distccmon doesn't work on NFS"
These seem more like warnings than prohibitions, and indeed, we haven't had any problems with object files full of zeros, and distccmon has been modified here so that it doesn't do orphan detection. Instead the status files get removed after a minute or so. I'll try some tests tonight when our developers aren't all using the machines, to compare a network mounted lock directory to a local one, but I have no evidence that getting a lock is causing any performance problems, so I will be surprised if there is a difference. Michael -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Kegel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] standard distcc practice is to *not* use network shared directories for the lockfiles. Can you test putting the lockfiles on a local disk and see if that improves performance over your current results? -----End Original Message----- __ distcc mailing list http://distcc.samba.org/ To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/distcc
