Re: [Cooker] [Cooker[ kernel-2.4.0-0.4 - preformance

2000-11-26 Thread Pedro Rosa
I just checked out the ac4 patch for last kernel and noted several patches that are related to issues rised in a previous post. So I tested it and: SMB seems to work as in previous kernels. NCP performance rose a little bit but keeps being miserable. NFS seems to not behave so wild as before.

I cheked the work of the new kernel and came into two features: On network file transfers. It seems 10-15% slower than previous kernels. And this situation is observed both on SMB and NCP. On NFS it does not seem to be significatively slower but it strangely behaves by foing up and down in the
