[Bug 1071978] Re: nfs kernel server is very slow and causing high cpu load

[Tim]

yes from top, seems to have high load for most transfers, however the
hangups seems to happen for either very big files ~5+GB or transfer with
many small files.

#exports
/media/store 192.168.1.0/24(rw,no_subtree_check)

#cat /proc/mounts
servs:/media/store/ /media/store nfs4 rw,relatime,vers=4.0,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,port=0,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,clientaddr=192.168.1.13,local_lock=none,addr=192.168.1.15 0 0

Title:
  nfs kernel server is very slow and causing high cpu load

Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have been noticing nfs-kernel server causing very high cpu load and
  the transfers are incredibly slow. In fact for big files, it tends to
  hang up completely and never finish.

  I did try briefly to test the 3.5 backport kernel however that also
  seemed to have the same issue.

  This may be a duplication of bug #879334, however that bug is missing
  log files, and apport-collect told me to file a new bug report
  instead.
