List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: nfs-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Errors-To: nfs-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Hi all, According to the file fs/nfsd/nfscache.c (line 30 on 2.6.23), reply cache is fixed size. Why is this a fixed size cache? Shouldn't be relative to the number of nfsd threads? I've a server with this statistics: rc 0 959398 336415498 By what I've been researching this means: 0 hits, 959398 misses (I supose that means something like "recently deleted") and 336415498 not in cache (and never has been). Is that right? Modifying the CACHESIZE to a bigger size do you think it could enhance NFS performance by getting some hits on the reply cache? Thanks!
