Try using something like IOZONE, mount the drives UDP/v2, and let it rock.
Why do you suggest UDP/v2, and not UDP/v3?
IN all my tests, with FreeBSD clients, v3 has never beat v2, and since in my cases the nodes are on a private non-bridged/non-routed subnet, the utility of TCP vs UDP in this case seems lost.
Does FreeBSD support >8KB V3 transfer sizes yet?
I regularly see 8-9MB/second on mine over FastEthernet.
On write?
Writes are 6-7, Reads 8-9. I don't know about >8kb transfer sizes as I have no desire to mess with a perfectly working stable system... :)
