Sounds like network isn't utilized to full potential. Rather strange, samba uses TCP for file copying AFAIK and TCP should adapt nicely to bandwidth/delay charasteristics of the link. Do http downloads from same server to same client behave the same as samba download? Did you try to disable TCP_NODELAY and/or sendfile? Do tcpdump on single download stream, look close at packet timestamps and also post it here along with your findings and try to bring attention from _real_ TCP gurus (as oppsed to me). > PS: nice tool btw You just uncovered my evil plan: I am trying to secretly spread it all around the world. -- vda -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
