--- Comment #19 from Rick Macklem <rmacklem@FreeBSD.org> ---
Well, I was going to suggest trying the "readahead=3D0" mount
option on a client (which disabled read ahead, including for
directory blocks).
Then I discovered the code didn't allow that.
So, first you'll need to apply the simple patch
"allow readahead=3D0 NFS mount option" and
then you can try it on a client.

It seems more likely that the client is broken than the
server (especially since UFS and ZFS both exhibit the
problem). All that a client should see when the server
is under heavy load is slow response.
--> Maybe that causes problems when a directory block
    is read ahead?
