+ rsize default read size (usually 16K). The client currently
+ can not use rsize larger than CIFSMaxBufSize. CIFSMaxBufSize
+ defaults to 16K and may be changed (from 8K to the maximum
+ kmalloc size allowed by your kernel) at module install time
+ for cifs.ko. Setting CIFSMaxBufSize to a very large value
+ will cause cifs to use more memory and may reduce performance
+ in some cases. To use rsize greater than 127K (the original
+ cifs protocol maximum) also requires that the server support
+ a new Unix Capability flag (for very large read) which some
+ newer servers (e.g. Samba 3.0.26 or later) do. rsize can be
+ set from a minimum of 2048 to a maximum of 130048 (127K or
+ CIFSMaxBufSize, whichever is smaller)
