Bug#692957: linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64: NFS server causes high load on 3.2 kernel

Package: src:linux Version: 3.2.32-1 Severity: important I originally niticed the issue on Ubuntu 12.04.1, but could reproduce it on Debian as well. I upgraded a squeeze system to testing and found that NFS access creates a high load on the NFS server. A single client machine with a single

2012-11-11 Thread Karsten Suehring
Can you also measure the speed at which the client can write, when the server is running each of the two kernel versions? If the client can write twice as fast (for example) then it should be OK to use twice as high a percentage of CPU time on the server, as the total CPU time needed for a

Unforunately I could not follow up on the issue anymore because I had to get my systems back into a running state. If nobody else can reproduce it on Debian, then it is possible that the issue was indeed related to Ubuntu only or the specific kernel version used there. So this bug can probably be
