NFS may have some influence here, but I doubt it is the primary cause for these variations. The network where Heiko is running these tests is mostly idle, so it should provide fairly constant conditions. Of coursem the use of the network on the MPC8xx itself will add to the variation, but again I would not expect so big differences. Heiko - there is a 10 GB disk attached to the "tqm8xx" system; I think there should be a usable root file system on it, but I cannot remember the actual state. Maybe we can use that. Please contact me on jabber this afternoon!
