I saw that this was also in the devel tree so I updated my copy and yes the printout is now right. But "time dd if=/dev/zero of=testing bs=1024k count=100" on a nfs mouted fs used to be 18s and is now 21s, a 16% slowdown not that I care much but still quite a large difference. And I have not tired this on my 10Mb port yet as I still have only one active but as soon as they work again I test on 10Mb. -- Kenneth Johansson Ericsson Business Innovation AB Tel: +46 8 404 71 83 Viderögatan 3 Fax: +46 8 404 72 72 164 80 Stockholm kenneth.johansson@inn.ericsson.se ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
