nfs is faster. it can even run in udp for extra juice. samba is a hacked filesystem. if i have a unix/linux/osx environment you can bet i'm running nfs. apple uses nfs for netbooting because other protocols can't compete with the speed. most people don't know that nfs exists. so there are ignorant as to setting it up. this is because popular distros are like toy operating systems that don't expose the functionality through a GUI and assume that average people only use a web browser.
