That's about what I see on an unloaded gbit interface from an ibm s7a to an 840, but it is still nearly twice as fast as the local ssa disks.

Does anybody knows what kind of performance I can expect from using the Gigabit ethernet on Solaris/NetApp?

For example, if mkfile 1024m 1gbfile on a NFS mounted netapp volume thru the gbit interface, how many seconds of response time is considered to be reasonable?

I'm getting about 30secs, while I'm hoping within 12secs, am I dreaming?

Thanks, -May --
