I am considering re-arranging several servers (10) into a NFS cluster where each server has very little local disk. All the home directories and files would be moved onto a central NFS server. I think the benefit would be easier management & backups. Each server currently has between 9 and 18G of user disk space and iostat reports an average of 40 sectors per second of the user disks with bursts up to 2000 sps. Do you think that a FreeBSD NFS server can easily handle this amount of traffic? Has any benchmarking been performed on the NFS implementation?
