My OBSD (4.8-stable) virtual machine (ESXi 3.5) to OBSD (4.8-stable)
physical machine isn't too bad:
ssurdock@builder03$ sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/VMware/test.dat bs=16k
count=>
32000+0 records in
32000+0 records out
524288000 bytes transferred in 19.466 secs (26933331 bytes/sec)
But, from the ESXi console it sucks.
Was your NFS server physical or virtual?
