We’ve done hundreds of compute nodes with NFS, but keep spools and executables local and only $SGE_ROOT/$SGE_CELL/common on NFS. Depending on nfs server implementation you may need to do some nfsd and mount option tweaking.

It is working fine for 2 nodes (testing) but I can t even think on adding 10 – 20 more via NFS Hmmmm. I'm running almost 60 nodes off NFS, including 10 on the other side of the Pacific. No issues with it. SGE_ROOT is on a NetApp filler - maybe that makes a difference.
