Description Jochen Witte 2004-08-16 14:54:51 UTC
Description of problem:
I wrote a little user-space NFS-Server, which works just fine over
UDP. However, trying TCP results in retransmits of REPLIES and the
whole thing gets very very slow.

When I try the kernel NFSD everything works correctly. What do I have
to do, to use RPC over TCP correctly? I know, this seems not to be a
distribution bug, but since the GLIBC guys say: "first report the
'bug' to Your distribution bug-tracking-system" -- I ended up here ;)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.3.3

How reproducible:
Well - compile my NFS-Server and try mounting it via TCP :)

Steps to Reproduce:

Comment 2 Jakub Jelinek 2004-08-17 13:38:03 UTC
What does this have to do with glibc and where is a bug we should
look into?
If you are writing your application, then it is up to you to debug
why it is slow and only when you find out why if you suspect a bug
in something other than your application file a bug with all the details
you found out and why you think there is a bug.
