Network latency. Sarge vs Etch.
Hi, everybody!
I have recently installed etch to upgrade my fileserver running sarge.
The point is that I noticed a network latency problem, that I initially
considered unimportant. This latency became a real problem with one of
our applications which stores its data in a samba share with over 29000
files about 1k-40k and it is so much slower now.
I've made this rudimentary test, and old server is quite faster. I'm
pretty sure that if I can tune up this it would improve this application
performance
felipe@nils:~$ ping -i 0.2 fast_server --- fast_server ping statistics ---
2156 packets transmitted, 2156 received, 0% packet loss, time 431208ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.135/0.171/0.245/0.018 ms
felipe@nils:~$ ping -i 0.2 slow_server
--- slow_server ping statistics ---
2146 packets transmitted, 2146 received, 0% packet loss, time 429165ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.152/0.179/0.333/0.021 ms
Summary:
Hardware: old server: 4 year old HP DL server with RAID 5
new server: brand-new HP DL server with RAID 5
Os: old server, sarge
new server, etch
Samba version: old server, 3.0.14a-3sarge2
new server, 3.0.24-6etch4
Kernel: old server, 2.6.8
new server, 2.6.18-4-686.
Thanks in advance
