NFS vs. SMB

I have frequently used SMB (Samba) for Linux to Linux transfer because
it was already setup for Windows access to those servers and the
transfers were of less than 20MB. I am investigating copying ~200GB of
data periodically and am testing an NFS connection. Initially, things
appear to be moving much faster than with SMB. Any evidence, anecdotal
or otherwise, that indicates how much faster NFS is?
