Things are working, but seem pretty slow. I'm getting about 10mb/sec. I was wondering where the bottleneck could be? Is there a way to optimize the NFS service for better throughput?
I am accessing over 127.0.0.1
Are the server and client coming from the same back-end spindles (I realize this is localhost)? How many spindles are involved?
If you are reading/writing to the same disk(s) expect seeking to eat up the vast majority of potential throughput unless you have a total pool of sufficient IOPS.
