Hello all,
Server: 486-33, 20MB RAM
Client: K6-233, 48MB RAM
Copying a file from a Client -> Server ~= 450 K/sec.
Copying a file from Server -> Client ~= 60 K/sec.
FTP is in the 400-500 K/sec range, too, as is NFS.
The linux box has plenty of free RAM, and shows almost
no activity. In fact, the smbd process associated
with the copy shows < 2% CPU util (less than top!)
It seems as if the server is just ... lazy. I've tried
the SO_SNDBUF, SO_RCVBUF fixes, also max xmit, and it still
pretty glacial.
Can anyone get Win95 clients to read from Samba at a decent xfer rate?
Thanks in advance,
Ed Schernau
