[comp.dcom.lans] file server performance issues

golds@fjc.GOV (Rich Goldschmidt) (05/09/91)

I am curious about how different file server products are compared and 
what their relative performance is.  For example, a 386/33 running
either (for example) Interactive Unix and NFS, or Novell.  Both Sun
and Novell make claims about how many "users" they will support.
How are these numbers measured, and has anyone directly compared NFS
and Novell on the same hardware?
