From 0e3e4f66130a077f0bf20bd29b8ad21d4d5a9314 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steve French Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2023 15:10:26 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] smb3: lower default deferred close timeout to address perf regression Performance tests with large number of threads noted that the change of the default closetimeo (deferred close timeout between when close is done by application and when client has to send the close to the server), to 5 seconds from 1 second, significantly degraded perf in some cases like this (in the filebench example reported, the stats show close requests on the wire taking twice as long, and 50% regression in filebench perf). This is stil configurable via mount parm closetimeo, but to be safe, decrease default back to its previous value of 1 second.
