Ok, I have about 800 feet of bamboo I am about to install, but I am still unsure whether to glue or nail. I have purchased Parabond's new Ultra-thane 870, because I have seen more people say glue rather than nail, but I still wonder which is truly best. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Nailing is faster, but I like the stoutness of a gluedown. No pops or creaks, as is a normal characteristic of a fasten down floor.
