Re: [Xen-devel] domU NFS performance

One of the things I've noted when using mutt is particular problems

We certainly have seen inter-domain network problems in the past, but
usually they crop up when running services in dom0, and moving them to
domU fixes things. So this is odd because the behaviour appears to be
reversed.
A few things to try: Use TCP rather than UDP as the transport protocol.
Also, try setting rsize/wsize to less than the MTU (e.g. 1024). If the
latter fixes things, try setting just one of rsize/wsize to the lower
value.
UDP and IP fragmentation have been the biggest sources of problems for
us. And I'm not totally sure how well Linux NFS implementation recovers
from packet loss when it runs over UDP.
