Subject: Re: Additional performance data on Pavel's smb3 multi credit patch series

Repeating these large file copy tests with SMB3 mounts with Pavel's
patches and trying larger wsize and rsize of 4MB (and later 5MB) did
not seem to help performance much (over his default with the new
patchset, 1MB).   I want to repeat these with real network adapters
(rather than in vmware or kvm) to compare though (to see if the larger
wsize and rsize help)
