Linux NFS performance v.s. kernel
NFS Performance test using bonnie benchmark for 2 GB file
- NFS Server : SUN Enterprise 450 (Solaris 2.6) 4 CPU (400MHz) 1GB memory
- NFS client : Linux RH5.2, Dual Pentium II 600 MB, 512 MB memory
- NFS performance of the recent Linux kernel seems to be improved
- nfsv3 patch is still useful for the recent kernel (2.2.14)
- currently we are using the kernel 2.2.11 + nfsv3 patch
- nfsv3 patch is available from http://www.fys.uio.no/~trondmy/src/
