[nfs-discuss] Re: NFS Performance - What's it Capable of?

[Case van Rij]

I suspect that the number of spindles in the storage array is a big part of the 
nfs throughput 
limits, certainly with gigabit, so I'm curious how this changes with NFS over 
10 Gigabit. 
Right now I'm seeing local writes between 230 - 270 MB/sec, but the linux NFS 
clients connected over 10 Gbe are topping out at 200 MB/sec (on rare occasions) 
and more commonly anywhere between 115 and 165 MB/sec.  
(2.6.18 kernel, dual-proc, dual-core xeon)
