I have a couple windows machines and the transfer speeds to the smb shares are always 100MB/s +. I setup nfs and also smb on ubuntu, but the speeds are roughly half that of a windows machine.. From windows, I'm basically saturating the gig speeds. It's not a bad cable as I have multiple ubuntu installs that have the same issue.

 

Surely, I'm needing to add a parameter to the fstab file.

 

Any ideas or anyone willing to share their fstab line for their share (nfs or cifs) that gets gig transfer speeds?

This is likely a client issue.

Yes, I completely agree. I am mounting the shares in the clients fstab.
