I used iperf to benchmark the network, and it said it transferred 1.10 GBytes with a bandwidth of 941 Mbits/sec I ran hdparm -tT to benchmark reads on the disk and it said this: Timing cached reads: 13394 MB in 2.00 seconds = 6713.72 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 362 MB in 3.00 seconds = 120.60 MB/sec > > > I tested by reading various 2G files from a few different underlying > > filesystems and across several NFS versions.

I'm not really sure. BTRFS does some work to make sure the page cache is synced up with their internal extent representation as part of llseek, so my guess is something related to that (But it's been a while since I looked into that code, so I'm not sure if that's still how it works) Anna > > --b. > > > Read Plus Results (btrfs): > > data > > :... v4.1 ...
