[opensuse] OpenSuse 10.2 - Fortran compilation very slow through NFS network with a 64bit server and 32bit clients.



Dear all,

I am a new OpenSuSE user and quite convinced by this distribution.
However, I still have a problem.

I have configured a gigabit network, using nfs and everything works
fine except for all the Fortran compilers I have tried so far (Intel,
g95, gfortran).

There is no problem to compile some files which are stored locally on
a nfs client.
However, when I try to compile some files stored on /home which is
mounted through nfs, then it takes hours to make the link between all
the .o files created.

My server is an OpenSuSE 10.2 - 64bit machine and the nfs options are
"root_squash,sync,insecure,rw".
All the clients run on OpenSuSE 10.2 - 32bit, with the options
"rw,soft".

Except for the compilation, I do not face any other slow network
communication.

Do you know if the problem is related to the "32bit clients - 64bit
server" association?
Should I add another nfs option to the server or to the clients?

Thanks a lot for your help :-)

Regards,

Michel
