same issue with 2.2.7.. I didn't have this issue on my Sparc 20 that I replaced a few days ago with the U2. on the Sparc20, I would get about the same local read/write performance, but with samba, I would get about 3 meg read and 3 meg write.
does samba have any known issues running on a 64bit version of solaris? that is the only other major change other than the faster hardware.. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Justin Richards" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, November 28, 2002 3:18 PM Subject: Re: [SAMBA] config/performance problem on solaris 8 > On Thu, Nov 28, 2002 at 02:39:14PM -0600, Justin Richards wrote: > > using iostat and doing some basic file testing such as: > > time dd if=/dev/zero of=./tst bs=8192 count=8192 > > time dd if=./tst of=/dev/null bs=8192 count=8192 > > > > my write speed was about 13.5 meg a sec, and read was 13 meg a sec. > > > > I didn't explain my disk set up before, let me do that briefly. > > > > I have a SUN 1010 fiber disk array, with 16 18gig drives and 10 9gig drives. > > The file systems I am doing my tests on are a stripe of 4 18gig drives.
