Many thanks for your reply! Hoover, Tony schrieb: > Have you checked the network end of things?

On the production site we have 100BaseTX and 1000baseT Ethernet between server and clients and network performance is "as expected" (i.e. up to 9 or 10MB/s for Fast Ethernet, up to 40 or 50MB/s for Gigabit Ethernet). I get similar numbers for NFS, FTP and Samba large file transfers. On my test installation both server and client are running in a VMware virtual machine on the same host and networking is "virtual", so there isn't even a switch involved... It's only a specific application (ArcView GIS) showing this problem, all other applications accessing the Linux Samba server are running fine with both the Solaris and the Linux server. Also, hardware problems IMHO wouldn't explain the difference in file access patterns between the Solaris and the Linux servers (4866 pread64() system calls on Solaris against more than 325000 pread64() system calls on Linux, this must be something really fundamental!) But thank you for your input anyway! - - andreas - -- Andreas Haumer | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] *x Software + Systeme | http://www.xss.co.at/ Karmarschgasse 51/2/20 | Tel: +43-1-6060114-0 A-1100 Vienna, Austria | Fax: +43-1-6060114-71 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEsqBbxJmyeGcXPhERAsylAJ9f4Sindy2JKDWBTMmlrdfnvdHaCgCgvqqm 9YEJCYTj+NbElddk8YiKc2A= =l1sL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
