Kernel: 4.2; raidframe enabled
Samba: samba-3.0.28
Bacula: bacula-2.2.6
Network card: fxp0 at pci0 dev 14 function 0 "Intel 8255x", media: Ethernet
100baseTX full-duplex
I had a 4.0 server that was distributing files at multiple MB/s. I rebuilt my
server with 4.2 and re-installed/compiled my applications. I also rebuilt the
kernel with raidframe enabled.
I copied my samba config from my backups which I ran before the
install/upgrade. When I tried to copy a large file from the samba server I was
getting about 35KB/s. My bacula software still transfers at a rate of multiple
MB/s.
I have experimented with different config options in the smb.conf file, notably
many variations of 'socket options'. This is my setting now:
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192
I have tried both my source-compiled version of samba as well as the
pre-compiled package. Both versions have the same performance issue.
Any suggestions where I should focus my attention?
Thanks in advance.
