[OpenIndiana-discuss] CIFS slow reads but fast writes

[Gregory Youngblood]

Did both the CentOS and Windows boxes have realtek cards? I don't know if I missed that detail earlier. I don't know that it will make much of a difference, though in the past I do know that realtek cards had "issues" and sometimes wouldn't perform very well. These days I pretty much stick with intel (or broadcom) based NICs unless I just don't have a choice. They usually perform pretty well and seem to work in most of the environments I use (Linux, Solaris/OI, Windows) without too much difficulty.
