Is there a way in PC-NFS to control the read and write buffer size when mounting a network drive. Thank's in advance Gardar.

PC-NFS issues a file system status request to the server when a drive is first mounted. The server returns a TSIZE in the status. PC-NFS will then use min(8192*,TSIZE) for writes and min(1024,TSIZE) for reads. (The latter to avoid back-to-back packets.) We know that people want/need to be able to tune these values, and we're looking at it.
