Hi List, my samba server has a gigabit connection and in order to check if the performance is on par i ran two simple Tests:
1) sending data from samba server to client with iperf (tcp mode, standard parameters): The achievable datarate is constantly about 500mbit/s 2) Downloading files with smbclient, ramdisk to ramdisk: The achievable datarate is constantly about 300mbit/s As the samba server is not under load i wonder why smbclient is considerably slower than iperf (why iperf only makes 500mbit/s is another question though). Any ideas?
