Hmh, with regard to 2.2-stable as an NFS-server: I have encountered severe performance problems between IRIX 5.3 (and 6.1) as clients and a 2.2.5 box as server (last made world made around the end of January). When I simply mount from the IRIX boxes, files get truncated. One can avoid that by specifying a block-size for read/write of 1024 when mounting. However, then the performance is lousy 20k/sec. (Compare this to the reversed roles, FreeBSD as the client, IRIX as the server, where I see 1MB/sec!) I have posted this previously, but got no reply. (I believe the issue mentioned for Digital UNIX and Solaris is in the official bug-database). Just in case anyone is interested: This is a typical error message from the IRIX side (6.1) when files get truncated during an NFS write Dec 15 16:03:05 2A:octopus unix: NFS write error 5 on host server1 Dec 15 16:03:07 2A:octopus unix: xdr_bytes: bad size FAILED Dec 15 16:03:07 2A:octopus unix: NFS2 write failed for server server1: Can't encode arguments No apparent error messages on the FreeBSD side. Helpful hints are certainly appreciated! Stefan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
