ok - to sum up a bit.. - for a good LAN, use UDP - use v3 (this is what I thought) - use standard data sizes but still... Our network connection between client and server is going directly over a BaySwitch 450 24T, all interfaces set to 100baseTX, half-duplex. So the LAN is good. We run 4 nfsd'

Putting on my NFS hat... I would not recommend NFSv2 to anyone. Everyone should be using NFSv3 at this point. It just does a much better job at everything, including and most especially at writing. TCP mounts are useful, and much safer, if you need to export NFS across a fir
