John,

Server:

CPU: Dual 2Ghz Xeon
RAM: 1GB DDR 2100
HDD: 3Ware 7850 w/ 8x160GB
KER: 2.4.19
OSS: RedHat 7.3
ETH: Intel Pro/1000

I'm just suprised that netatalk approaches full throughput on the disk while samba isn't close. The results were the same for current and previous versions of samba, so it's not just the alpha version in question.

What kernel options did you want to compare?

What is your RAID device? What controller? What drives?

Using a 3Ware 7500-4 IDE RAID Controller with 3 Western Digital 60GB
7200rpm drives, in a Tyan S2462 Thunder K7 motherboard with dual AMD
MP1600+ CPUs and 1GB DDR 2100 RAM, running the linux-2.4.18 kernel over
1GBe I was able to get sustained read rates of approx. 90MB/sec and
sustained write rates of 70MB/s using samba.

My client was a Tyan S2640 512MB RAM, 1 Gbe, dual MP1600+ CPUs.

Your numbers are way off mine. Suggest we compare notes on what hardware
you are using, what kernel options are enabled. How many CPU's etc.
