Hi,
While playing around with various block sizes used with libsmbclient, I
noticed the following behavior:
- when reading 2MB chunks, libsmbclient would request 64512 bytes and
pipeline many of them at once.
- when forced to use SMB2 (against Win7 server), libsmbclient would use
65536 byte requests and only send 1 at a time.
The latter behavior is in contrast to what I get when using smbclient
and forcing SMB2: smbclient requests two 1MiB requests concurrently.
Is this a bug?
