Try testing with Bonnie++, the file creation and deletion tests will give
interesting results! ;)
In one test I had an AIX machine that was moderately grunty (two fast
POWER CPU's, 6 hard drives on a 160MB/s bus, 256M of RAM). When running
Bonnie++ I found that the AIX machine could create files on my Thinkpad
over a 10baseT NFS mount faster than it could create them on a local JFS
file system!
