    Hmmm.  There is nothing 'wrong' per say with getting a bad cookie during
    a directory search.  When FreeBSD gets a cookie error while scanning
    a directory, it has to start the scan over again.  If you have a very
    large directory with lots of clients banging on it, a cookie error 
    can result in a long delay.

    I am guessing that the long blockages are due to getting cookie errors
    on a very large directory.

    Why are you using a V2 mount?  V3 mounts ought to perform much better,
    though the cookie error problem you are seeing will probably still be
    there.
