I know this is an old thread.

The parameters I had given to the OP had made a difference to me, but
now, I am realising that the difference was in pulling up a list of
files in a directory. (aka: when on the Mac,s Finder, you click on a
folder, how long it takes for the filenames to appear in it).

Right now, I am copying entire user directory structure and it is
painfully slow. (aka: unix/Mac readuing files stored on the VMS system.)


Perhaps it is the cp -R command which is using nfs resources
inefficiently. (perhaps it does byte by byte read/writes ?)
