Fast AFP but really slow NFS

[robinmorgan]

Hello all!

My afp shares get 950MBs read but my NFS shares only get 141MBs... from my research I've changed the following which had no effect.

1. Edited dataset and disable sync
2. I tried increasing the number of servers (possible concurrent connection issue)

We absolutely need NFS as we have some video editors using FCPX.
Any pointers would be great!

Morning all,

Followup on how I solved this incase someone else has the same issue. I solved the issue by editing the nfs.conf file on each Mac workstation...

sudo nano /etc/nfs.conf

Then added:

Code:

nfs.client.mount.options=nfssvers=3,tcp,async,locallocks,rw,rdirplus,rwsize=65536

nfs.client.allow_async=1

Hope this helps others!
