Hello Managers,
My question
      My Wildfire system which also hosts a NFS server gives the best NFS
performance when the same Blast Tables are accessed localy and across 
NFS ...
                As always I was flooded with responses . I got respnses 
responses and responses .
Almost everybody had one thing to say .
The tables are cached in Memory and so access times for the data is 
reduced in comparison to the tables accessed from disk  hence the 
increase in performance .
Jim Belonis even suggested creating a RAMDISK , to keep t
he tables . As these tables are 16Gigs and getting bigger ;),  I will 
have to settle to some alternate way of speeding up .
Thanks all for responding .
But this still makes me think as I dont see this performance gain when
two systems are parsing  the same data over NFS  simultaneously .
