Subject: Linux nfs client and nfs server prefetch and readhead?

Hello,

Is there any document which describes how nfs client prefetch and nfs
client readahead work, and which sizes are used (e.g. always read one
full page even if only 16 bytes are requested?).

Also, does the nfs server do any prefetch, or readahead? Which sizes
are used, page size, or something else?

Thanks,
Martin
