[opensuse] Slow performance when using the cifs module to mount samba shares
Hi all. I have a problem with the cifs module in my gigabit network. I get the following performance: 95 mbytes/s with FTP 65 mbytes/s with samba, windows 7 client 8 mbytes/ with the cifs module on opensuse 11.4 I don't think this a Suse only issue, as I have found NOBODY without my problem. However, I guess there must be some workaround to make it go faster. Praise -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

http://en.opensuse.org/Samba -> "Samba bug reporting and advanced debugging information" -> "Debugging cifs vfs client" If this doesn't help please report via bugzilla as Suresh, our Linux cifs kernel client guy might not be on this list.

Which side is doing the permissions management and checking in your setup? With CIFS clients you can have the local station attempt to manage this or let the remote samba server handle it. My tests (a couple releases ago) were faster when the samba server did all the work (nosetuid noperm) See setuids/nosetuids and perm/noperm mount options. Also take a gander at directio. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
