Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 10:21:14 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081208182114.GD29163@samba1> (raw)

Here's a really interesting paper from Intel
that they recently brought to my attention.

http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/windows-client-cifs-behavior-can-slow-linux-nas-performance

Looks like using XFS for your Linux Samba
server, or setting "strict allocate = yes" can make
a big difference due to sparse file issues.

Comments welcome !

Jeremy.
