Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk During the last couple of weeks, the load on our FreeBSD NFS server has increased. Lately we discovered that the servers very easily were hung up to several minutes at a time when large files (over 1 MB) were written from large SparcStations. It seems only to be a problem when writing. This has become a severe problem---the servers hang several times a day. Has anyone experienced this and come up with solutions?
