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.
