NFSIOD(8)                 BSD System Manager's Manual                NFSIOD(8)

NAME
     nfsiod - local NFS asynchronous I/O server

SYNOPSIS
     nfsiod [numdaemons]

DESCRIPTION
     Nfsiod runs on an NFS client machine to service asynchronous I/O requests
     to its server.  It improves performance but is not required for correct
     operation.

     Available options:

     numdaemons
             The option numdaemons defines how many nfsiod daemons to start;
             if unspecified, only a single daemon will be started.  A client
             should typically run enough daemons to handle their maximum level
             of concurrency, typically four to six.

SEE ALSO
     nfsstat(1),  async_daemon(2),  mountd(8),  portmap(8)
