and one with RAID10 upgraded to samba 3.0.9. Both have the same problem: when you copy from
server to client, speeds are on big files about 40MB/s for RAID1 and about 60MB/s for RAID10.
But when you copy to server, speed are about 8MB/s. I have set up ftp servers on them just to try
ftp protocol upload, and it is happy full speed both directions.
After few hours of googling, I found "security = share" hint, which didn't help, and after little more
time "use sendfile = yes" hint, which helped little bit, speeds are now 10-12MB/s, but still not
acceptable.
We don't intend to use samba servers as PDC, but just only as workgroup NAS.
Original smb.conf is attached (before security and sendfile tweaking).
One more question: does anybody know good utility to test speed of remote volumes ?
