Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] NFSv4.2: mount overhead should not be used as threshold for inter-server copy
Date:   Fri,  2 Apr 2021 19:30:31 -0400

Since mount and unmount are not done on each copy request, its overhead
should not be considered as the threshold for doing inter-server copy.
The threshold used to determine sync or async copy is also used to decide
whether copy is done with inter-server copy or generic copy.
