Server: OS b129 Client: OSX 10.6.2 (all updates applied) Performance is good with large files. It's also quite good if I take all the small files and tar them on the way to the NFS share. This is a directory tree full of .jpg files, 1-4MB in size, about 10k files, 50 or so directories.
I was just wondering if there are any options I can use for this particular mount that might speed performance for this type of workload. Local copies are fast, so it seems to be NFS itself causing the performance lag. If the only free OSX iSCSI client didn't cause so many problems for me, I'd go that route. Client mount options from the autofs config file. shared -rw,rwsize=65536,intr,async,nodev,nosuid,tcp,actimeo=0,vers=3,noatime 10.1.0.2:/raid/shared I've tried UDP, no significant difference. The server side options are basically defaults. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
