Well, mine isn't screwy....  :)  I figure 442K/sec and 806K/sec on a
couple of 486es with IDE drives and an NE2000 client isn't bad.  I can
live with that.  :)

Wait a minute..... How can you get 2162 K/sec on a 10 Mbps link??

You are right, that IS fast.  :)  Want to know how pathetic the disk
subsystem on the 486 NFS server from my first test above is?

Writing the 32 Megabyte file, 'iozone.tmp'...20.031250 seconds
Reading the file...10.273438 seconds

IOZONE performance measurements:
        1675104 bytes/second for writing the file
        3266134 bytes/second for reading the file

:)
