I ran NFS read tests with the forementioned V880 server as NFS client. There was no significant difference between NFS TCP and NFS UDP. The average read speed was 32MBs, which is weak, but I think this can be configured by tweaking some parameters on both Solaris and NetApp side. Can anyone recommend any specific settings that can improve NFS read?
NetApp has documented the parameters used in one of their benchmarks at http://www.netapp.com/tech_library/3145.html#5.
In particular, we have found that nfs:nfs3_max_threads and nfs:nfs3_nra can make quite a difference.
