Tried it, no difference is noticeable. I'm suspecting windows just can't feed it fast enough. If I run multiple smbtar's at once, the rate goes up a bit more, but still plateau's at around 3 meg a second. Watching vmstat on a p4/2.53, i'm seeing 20,000 context switches a second, and something like 4000 packets a second on the ethernet. The pentium 133 at another plant can pull files off the network just as fast as the p4/2.53, for whatever reason. Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
