I tried the tweaks as suggested by Massimo Forti, and I can say that
they did the trick. The speed with cifs jumped to ~7.5 MB/s (read and
write), which is much better than 500 KB/s with cifs I had until now and
~5 MB/s with gvfs (but, still, less than ~10 MB/s I had before). These
settings almost solved the problem in my case ("almost" only because I
had even greater transfer speed before, but don't get me wrong, this is
a fantastic improvement).Massimo, thanks again, you solved a very big problem of mine. I will try to see if there is something else that's limiting the speed to ~7.5 MB/s in the next few days and will report what I found. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810606 Title: Slow cifs in 11.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cifs-utils/+bug/810606/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
