Re: [gpfsug-discuss] alphafold and mmap performance

Not that it answers Stuart's questions in any way, but we gave up on the same problem on a similar setup, rescued an old fileserver off the scrapheap (RAID6 of 12 x 7.2k rpm SAS on a PERC H710P) and just served the reference data by nfs - good enough to keep the compute busy rather than in

[gpfsug-discuss] nfs krb5p performance

2021-09-20 Thread Jon Diprose
