- For what its worth, here are my $0.02.
-
- I had TCP 1.2 running on OS/2 1.3. I exported filesystems that were mounted
- on a Sun Sparc IPC. The performance was very erratic. Fast spurt, lon
- wait...
-
- Someone told me to sync the time on the PC to the time on the Sun. When I
- did this, the performance improved dramtically and there were no more
- spurts.
-
- Their reasoning was stale file handles. Experts? Chime in.
