SAN Users,

I compared the transfer times for copying files from Bristol using Windows XP Professional and Redhat Linux 8.0 (smbfs). All tests were performed on the same computer (Dell Dimension 4100).


                       Transfer Time [sec]                    
Files & Trial Number     WinXP    Linux     % Change
---------------------    -----    -----     --------
Small Files (1st try)     135      157        -16.3    
Small Files (2nd try)     100      140        -40.0
Large Files (1st try)     121      256       -111.6
Large Files (2nd try)     118      244       -106.8

Percent change calculated as (WinXP-Linux)/WinXP*100

Setup Details:
WinXP
- Windows XP Professional
- Service Pack 1
- Mapped network drive

Linux
- RedHat 8.0
- kernel-2.4.18-26.8.0
- samba-2.2.7-2
- samba-client-2.2.7-2
- mounted share read-write using smbfs

Small Files
- Total Size 402MB (422,146,548 bytes)
- 6993 Files, 31 Folders
- File Size Histogram
-- 6560 files -> 56 kB
-- 410 files -> 104 kB
-- 23 files -> 3 to 127 kB

Large Files
- Total Size 0.99 GB (1,064,498,752 bytes)
- 12 Files, 0 Folders
- File Size Histogram
-- 2 files -> 2,317 kB
-- 2 files -> 97,591 kB
-- 8 files -> 104,968 kB

Enjoy,

SAN Users,

Per Francis's request, I performed the same speed tests transfering files from Hall. I also repeated the tests for Bristol. The files described in my last post were used for both the Hall and Bristol tests.

To Hall
                       Transfer Time [sec]                    
Files & Trial Number     WinXP    Linux     % Change
---------------------    -----    -----     --------
Small Files (1st try)     132      142         -7.6    
Small Files (2nd try)     117      100        +14.5
Large Files (1st try)     115      193        -67.8
Large Files (2nd try)     115      191        -66.1

To Bristol
                       Transfer Time [sec]                    
Files & Trial Number     WinXP    Linux     % Change
---------------------    -----    -----     --------
Small Files (1st try)     114      246       -115.8    
Small Files (2nd try)     102      199        -95.1
Small Files (3rd try)     102      190        -86.3
Large Files (1st try)     127      250        -96.8
Large Files (2nd try)     130      248        -90.8
