Then under what circumstances should I choose to use the cache? Do you
mean that the cache will only be beneficial under really slow
connection?? I am not using Gigabit Ethernet but Fast Ethernet.
Wouldn't NFS client still benefits from using the cache with a heavy
loaded server (for example, around 200 clients)?
