Hi,

I googled around and the general wisdom seems to be that oplocks provide a 
performance gain if files are accessed by a single client at a time (that is, 
if the oplock does not break).

What I can't figure out is what test can show this performance gain. I mean, 
theoretically, document-editing applications (Word,excel) save and load whole 
files and hence do not benefit from oplocks. Applications which do modify 
portions of a file usually flush buffers to maintain transactional integrity 
and hence should not benefit from oplocks either.

So, how can I demonstrate the benefit of oplocks?

Thanks,
Uri.
