Hi, I have a Solaris 10 x86 server, sharing data over lan.
I have Samba on it, but the volume itself is ZFS. So i did some test transferring 1.2gig of mp3 zipped over a 1gig lan : ====================== *FTP (21 seconds)) : 100% |**********************************************************| 1292 MB 60.73 MB/s 1355171291 bytes sent in 00:21 (60.72 MB/s) *SCP (1:01 minutes): 3-bae87.zip 100% 1292MB 21.2MB/s 01:01 *Via mounted NFS (1:38minutes) : real 1m38.101s user 0m0.014s sys 0m8.563s *Via mounted SMB-samba (14minutes !!!) : real 14m42.840s user 0m0.010s sys 0m4.486s ====================== So the best speed are achived with FTP, the "correct" speed is the mount nfs, but the worst is the samba share... My question is this: in that case, the "correct" form to share the file will be NFS instead of samba, since i have access to my zfs volume via nfs share? Also, why is it that slow with samba?
