iSCSI & NFS are roughly comparable until you get to 16KB file sizes
and above. This is when NFS starts to drop off drastically for read
performance without any caching.

Here's an NFS I/O test on a 1Gb ethernet link and file sizes from 64k
to 16Gb: http://preview.tinyurl.com/44upb5f

Here's an iSCSI I/O test on the same hardware, same network, same back
end file server but using the different protocol:
