Hi

I am trying to track down a problem with nfs performance between an opensolaris 
nfs server in dom0 and an ubuntu pv domu client. I would be 
gratefull for any tips on how to identify the problem.
.
I have /home from the opensolaris dom0 mounted as /home in the ubuntu domu.  
Read performance on the client is very slow:

It is much faster if I use cifs:

dd if=intrepid-desktop-i386.iso  bs=32k of=/dev/null
22260+1 records in
22260+1 records out
729432064 bytes (729 MB) copied, 13.0277 s, 56.0 MB/s
