| 43 | .Nm nfsiod | |
| 44 | .Op Ar numdaemons | |
| 45 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | |
| 46 | .Nm Nfsiod | |
| 47 | runs on an | |
| 48 | .Tn NFS | |
| 49 | client machine to service asynchronous I/O requests to its server. | |
| 50 | It improves performance but is not required for correct operation. | |
| 51 | .Pp | |
| 52 | Available options: | |
| 53 | .Pp | |
| 54 | .Bl -tag -width Ds | |
| 55 | .It Ar numdaemons | |
| 56 | The option | |
| 57 | .Ar numdaemons | |
| 58 | defines how many | |
| 59 | .Nm nfsiod | |
| 60 | daemons to start; | |
| 61 | if unspecified, only a single daemon will be started. | |
| 62 | A client should typically run enough daemons to handle | |
| 63 | their maximum level of concurrency, | |
| 64 | typically four to six. | |
