-<p>Simple patch to increase virtual block size of SMB filesytem in Linux
-kernel. For me it improved tranfer rate of <code>cp</code> command almost
-by a factor of <strong>2</strong> (approx. 700KB -> 1300KB or something
-like about it). Now <code>cp</code> should be as fast as <code>cat</code>
-redirected across networked filesystems.</p>
-<p>Unfortunately the blocksize causes different (4 times smaller) sizes
-reported by <code>du</code> command as it measures it in <i>blocks</i>
-and not in <i>kilobytes</i> as some people think.</p>
+<p>Accelerate twice the copying transfer rate for client GNU/Linux from SMB
+server share (Microsoft Windows).
