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?


Regards,
Sigbjorn
