The Solaris NFS server allows up to a megabyte, for instance. Now the Linux NFS client supports transfer sizes up to 1MB, too. This will help reduce protocol and context switch overhead on read/write intensive NFS workloads, and support larger atomic read and write operations on servers that support them. Test-plan: Connectathon and iozone on mount point with wsize=rsize>32768 over TCP. Tests with NFS over UDP to verify the maximum RPC payload size cap.
