We upgraded from a 10/100Mbs to a 2 100/1000 bonding. We notice the speeds of NFS to be around 70-80Mb/sec. Which is slow, especially with bonding. I was wondering if we need to tune anything special with the Network and NFS. Does anyone have any experience with this?

my general experience is that Linux has a rather poor implementation of NFS server. Solaris works much better as a NFS server.

I wouldn't completely disagree with that but we have a number of linux NFS servers running that are working really well - once we tweaked the mount options. We are using these: -rw,bg,nosuid,timeo=50,retry=1
