Hi folks, I see a pretty poor NFSv3 performance for my Solaris10 machines (sparc) connected to the Linux (amd64, 2.6.29.6) servers, especially on removing a lot of files. Sample: % time rm -rf linux-2.6.31.4/Documentation real 0m45.268s user 0m0.044s sys 0m44.334s Please note the high sys value. Using a Solaris 10 NFSv3 server and the same client I get this instead: % time rm -rf linux-2.6.31.4/Documentation real 0m22.712s user 0m0.029s sys 0m0.330s It is still not a brilliant time, but the sys value is much closer to what one would expect. The usual optimizations about attribute caching and wsize/rsize etc. did not improve the poor performance. Not to mention that NFSv4 is _much_ faster for both servers. Of course I understand that this is a Solaris issue, but maybe you have some insight? Did somebody investigate this?
