Here are some ideas for testing: * Any firewall in between them? Do you have network errors? * Any other network problems, like DNS lookup failures? (not that it should matter for sustained tranfers but still...) * Are you using TCP or UDP for NFS? TCP should be better in all cases. * Have you monitored the system with "top"? Try hitting "S" and "H" in top while transfering files, see if anything looks suspicious. * Run "iostat 1", check tps and KB/t. * What file system are you using? --------------enigEA21E8FF6560557606AE2136 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAknyAmUACgkQldnAQVacBciVbwCg/O5ypPsgbgS4/h5mmdGCAmPv FAEAnieMj2iuxEBAbwmgI5bWyDkUbdpo =TM+6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigEA21E8FF6560557606AE2136--
