Hi honorable people!
In self-education purposes only, I would like to ask is 35 Mbytes/sec
bandwidth limitation of SMB/CIFS in Gigabit applications?
I've try read large file (45GB) from server to client's dev/nul and don't
get bandwidth greater than specified...
But, using FTP or NFS I get REAL stable read speed at 80 MB/sec!
Same picture in synthetic TCP tests.
Why while SMB in use network utilization oscillate around 25% and nothing
more?
Is that mean that in 10GbE we get max utilization in 2-5%?
I tested various combination SAMBA server/client, MS server/client - all for
nothing.
