Hi, I have a FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE server which shares and backups my data over the network. For this I have five 2TB WD Caviar Green [EARS] HDDs which are together in a RAIDZ2 ZFS Storage.
Over Samba with Windows 7 as client I got up to max. ~120MB/s, average ~90MB/s, min. 75MB/s by copying big files like .iso images. Good results I find, but under NFS I max. 48MB/s, average ~30MB/s, min. ~25MB/s.
I know already from Linux experience with NFS/Samba that Samba has quite better performance (on my Gentoo server before I had some lower rates in Samba and about 80MB/s in NFS on a single disk) but 30MB/s is way too little.
Are there some performance-increasing options to solve this issue?
Regards, bsus
