1.3.2 Network Performance
This is somewhat harder to measure - and there are several quite radically different meanings to the terms 'network performance' in any case.
What I have chosen to measure is what the user sees on his/her end of the network - copying files to and from the server machine. Although this is not a true indication of network performance, it is one thing that is easy to measure and gives some (although not an exact) measure of the relative strengths of these operating systems with respect to user level applications.
For the purpose of this exercise, I loaded Samba version 1.9.15 patch level 3 on to the Linux PC. This was set up in a very basic configuration with almost no security. On the Windows NT end, all protocols other than TCP/IP were disabled (that is, no NetBEUI or IPX/SPX - after all it is the operating system and not the protocol I am analysing here).
The figures for a similar test to the one above performed across the network were:
Linux 95.47 sec
Windows NT 112.75 sec
The difference here is somewhat more pronounced, Linux scores about 15.4% faster than the NT machine, as opposed to the 4.9% difference in disk to disk
