OST isn't NAS/CIFS. It's a completely different protocol. Tests on DD
show it to be at least 100% faster than CIFS.
That doesn't take much - CIFS (pre-Windows 2008) isn't designed for high throughput. CIFS 2 (in Win2k8 and Vista) is supposed to be significantly faster and comparable to NFS performance.
Saying NAS/CIFS sucks isn't all that fair since NAS <> CIFS.
