It is a gigabit setup. NFS read is about 30-34MB/s, writing is
considerably slower with 15MB/s. So writing is a bit slow. But as i do
not need fast storage i did not investigate. And it must be mentioned,
that the whole data is in AES.

I use this share like a local harddisk. There is nothing like "Oh, this
is on remote storage, i will do <random thing> differently." I do
everything i do on a local disk, and i did not find anything that would
not work due to lack of performance. Admitted i do not do much
performancecritical stuff.
