| <h3>How do I setup SAMBA to get the best performance with OOo?</h3> |
| <p>[Here is what Xavier Poirier did to improve performance of OOo clients running from a SAMBA share]:</p> |
| <p>We have an installation of OOo1.1 on a network with a SAMBA share (for the clients) - a 10M network, so not the fastest.</p> |
| <p>For SAMBA I have found this (thanks to O'REILLY Online Catalog): <a href="http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/appb_02.html">[Appendix B] B.2 Samba Tuning</a>.</p> |
| <p>Tuning options used:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>We have a share with READONLY mode (which is 5-10% faster for OOo).</li> |
| <li>Put OPLOCKS "ON": this permits the client to "cache" the files.</li> |
| <li>Put LOGLEVEL to "1" instead of "0" by defaut.</li> |
| <li>Put BLOCSIZE to 2048 instead of 1024.</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>Later I will try others, (like IPTOS_LOWDELAY) if anyone tries it, I'm interested ...</p> |
| <p>The clients: for better performance, it seems that they must run the quickstarter of OOo: <code>soffice.exe -quickstart</code>.</p> |
| <p>The result is <b>GOOD!</b> The clients are much faster for opening OOo! We won about 30-40% performance I think with these parameters.</p> |
