Hi Tim,
Just as a sanity check.
I did some testing earlier this year to characterize performance
differences btw 2.2.8a and 3.0.2a. I tested simple copies of one .5 GB
file, and also a directory with 5000 files (with very long names
including upper and lower case). As long as I was testing

For windows I'm low-tech: stopwatch plus drag-n-drop of a large file (any
recommendations on a 'simple' windows program that will tell you how long it
took to copy a file, or even calc the BW for you?)
timethis from the windows resource kit
- why would I be getting half the performance via nfs
I'm doing some performance tests on a samba NAS server and I've found some
interesting statistics:
I'm doing my performance tests in linux using:
# time dd if=somelargefileovershare of=/dev/null bs=1M count=100
Then calculating the bandwidth
