again: FreeBSD NFS server benchmarks vs. OpenBSD, NetBSD?

2002-06-23 Thread Dan Ellard
There have been some useful responses to my original question, but I guess I didn't make it clear enough what the question was, because I got a lot of responses comparing the NFS servers on systems other than FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD. I'm only interested in comparing the performance of these

Terry makes some very excellent points that I've tested and documented in "Real Life". Two years ago I did a bunch of extensive testing between three NFS servers (Sun, FreeBSD, NetApp) and one set of NFS clients (FreeBSD). Anyone that knows NFS really well would have predicted our test results

FreeBSD NFS server benchmarks vs. OpenBSD, NetBSD?

2002-06-20 Thread Dan Ellard
Has anyone done a side-by-side benchmark of the FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD NFS servers on the same hardware? Note that I'm interested in server performance, not client performance. I'm particularly interested in read performance, but anything would be interesting. In lieu of actual data, whi
