A quick check reveals that the lmddtest's that had problems before
now runs pretty good ... as fast as writing to ext2 over NFS.
In both cases, lmdd (sequential) write is giving about 11.2 Mbyte/sec.

Also, the server runs much "cooler": only about 30-40% cpu utilization,
again comparable to ext2 exported case. Ship it ;-)
