Hi, what is Samba speed limit? I usually get maximum throughoutput about 3-4 MBytes/s reading from Samba, 2-3 MB/s writing to Samba server. (IDE discs, but 256 MB memory, Athlon 900 MHz, one 500 MB file, 100 Mbit network). What are your results? Does anybody knows about some performance tunings? I have adjusted only this: socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=16384 SO_SNDBUF=16384 write cache size = 262144 Thanks, Libor
Hi, Your speed is so fast. Can you tell me how you measure the speed? My speed is only 1mb - 1.4mb copy from NT to samba. I'm using IDE disc, 256 sdram, P4 1.5G (samba) and P2 333(NT), 100 Mbit network. I mount from samba to NT, and using midnight commander to copy a 100mb file. I also try your configuration, but the speed is not change.

Hi, Which socket options did you find helped you most? I'm particularly interested in trying the RCVBUF and SNDBUF, as well as 'write cache size'. Did you find one to make any significant difference? Check out my other reply to this thread and you can see my performance results with a Pentium 100 running FreeBSD 3.4.

Hi, on Celeron 500, 196 MB RAM, software RAID5 with 3 IDE discs I get 6 seconds which is apx. 6 MB/s... but when I did "..count=1000000..." it took me 2:23 which is somewhere about 3.5 MB/s...
