I almost had Ganesha compiling on MacOSX a while back, but only to use as a
developer platform: I wanted to be able to code on planes, as I (used to)
fly a lot of 12h+ long haul flights. Then I discovered that Docker
containers are a great way (and it's free!) to run a full Linux environment
on a Mac. Just build your own docker container with developer tools and
dependencies.
Running this in a Linux container may add additional noise to the measurement -
I want to benchmark the NFS server running on loopback in particular. So yes,
this is not purely for development.
I am doing a similar benchmark with macOS's SMB client using Samba. I plan to
use whichever protocol+OSS server pair performs better, assuming there is a
significant difference in performance.
