Hi,
is anyone running samba with decent performance willing to help?
I'm running samba-3.6.15 on OpenBSD 5.8 (amd64) on a Supermicro
D525 Atom board with 4GB memory and em(4) nics.
When transferring a 1GB file from Windows 7 to samba, it won't
exceed 22-25MB/s.
After lots of testing, the only thing that helps is increasing the
recv/send buffer in smb.conf via "socket options". When setting
SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF to >50000 i get around 60MB/s.
As i'm no fan of "very.fast.network=yes" knobs like this, i'd like
to get more opinions on how to improve performance with samba.
Thanks,
-Mark
