The next strange behaviour is that, with unfs3 as the server, I try to mount using wsize set to 65536 with the command: $ mount 192.168.1.201:/server/ -o wsize=65536 /test/mount but the /proc/mounts entry still reports a 512k wsize value. $ cat /proc/mounts 192.168.1.201:/server/ /test/mount nfs rw,vers=3,rsize=524288,wsize=524288,hard,intr,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,addr=192.168.1.201 0 0 and wireshark also shows client sending 512k requests. mount.fs version is: mount.nfs (linux nfs-utils 1.1.4) Is there any way to force the client to use a 64k wsize value?
