Hello, I did not get any performance improvement with block sizes bigger than 8192... are you using jumbo frame? Second, i think you should use tcp just if you network is not reliable, i mean, you are not using a NAS isolated network. And timeo,retrans you should use just if you see problems. If you want, you can try with the values above, and see what happens..
