I've only got ultrix to play with, and it was only last weekend that I gave
NFS its first run ,exporting src from a VAX3500 to a DecSystem5400 , to find
that the 3500 got a real kick in the response time with very little
NFS effort. I was not impressed, believing this to be normal behavior for NFS
I'm glad to hear its Ultrix (sort of). Has Ultrix 4.2 fixed this, would
BSD source for NFS have the same problems ?
