is associated with what function. In fact, the so often used syscall was preadv, not openat. Thus my only suggestion is to change the default for msize= to 131072 (128k), this results in a speed up from ~ 30MB/s to ~ 290MB/s in the large-file reading use case. Regards, Lutz Vieweg On 01/12/2012 07

calls are static and seem to become inlined. Does anyone have an idea what may have caused this? Do you still see good read performance when reading big plain files from a 9p mount. Regards, Lutz Vieweg
