For heavy NFS use I wouldn't consider anything else. We've had
September-vintage 4.0-current (as in, right after the big NFS fixes went
in) machines in production and never had problems with them. We're
getting ready to go to 4.0-Release when we get a chance. I'm already
using it for other things.
That said, you shouldn't expect 4.0-Release to be like a -Stable
branch, not yet anyway. Be ready to live up to the usual -current
responsibilities, like following this list, etc.
Good luck,
Doug
