I just tried a transfer of a 17,008,640 byte file from the PC to the Amiga via NFS. It took 3min 35sec which works out to about 79K/sec. When I transferred files via FTP, I think that I was getting somewhere on the order of 58K/sec. I have done some changes to the system since then, such as moving the SCSI HD (on the PC) from external to internal, which is supposed to speed up the transfer rate, so all of the gains may be disk related. I just tried a transfer of the same file from the Amiga to the PC via NFS and it's dog slow (9KB/sec). I can't even break it. I had to reboot. It looks like the PC is updating the directory entry for the file for each block that comes across. I just ran FTP both ways on a 3.5MB file. It ran at 86KB/sec to the Amiga and at 68KB/sec to the PC. Something is very strange here. I will leave more messages on the OS/2 fora about this. BobS
