That would be nice, if it's not too much trouble.
But don't lose any sleep over it; I've tried one or two oplocking settings and they didn't make any difference and I think that this is an actual bug, rather than a case of bad settings. :/
There are like zillions of threads both in Ubuntu and Gentoo forums about same thing
(and some other variants of slowness) and it would appear that weirdest things fix it - and usually those fixes work only for the person who discovered it.
I've even tried changing the NIC, but it didn't help either.
Maybe a better NIC might have helped, but I have only different flavors of Realteks.
PS. I had a funny experiment; I connected two systems directly, with a regular
(non-crossover) CAT5-cable.
Mostly to see if NICs have the autosense-ability for regular/crossover-cable that almost all switches seem to have. The results were... interesting. It worked. But it was really, really slow. I dunno if there's some kind of semi-borked autosense in NICs as well, or if they just work
(although badly) with incorrect wiring as well.
