Hi, I've been searching around on the Internet to fine some help with this, but have been unsuccessfull so far.
I have some performance issues with my file server. I have an OpenSolaris server with a Pentium D 3GHz CPU, 4GB of memory, and a RAIDZ1 over 4 x Seagate (ST31500341AS) 1,5TB SATA drives. If I compile or even just unpack a tar.gz archive with source code (or any archive with lots of small files), on my Linux client onto a NFS mounted disk to the OpenSolaris server, it's extremely slow compared to unpacking this archive on the locally on the server. A 22MB .tar.gz file containng 7360 files takes 9 minutes and 12seconds to unpack over NFS. Unpacking the same file locally on the server is just under 2 seconds. Between the server and client I have a gigabit network, which at the time of testing had no other significant load. My NFS mount options are: "rw,hard,intr,nfsvers=3,tcp,sec=sys". Any suggestions to why this is?
