Cool!  The architecture you have is similar to that of the SPECsfs
benchmark test (  http://www.spec.org/sfs2008/ )
which involves a "coordinator node" and multiple "client nodes" which
direct NFS network
traffic towards a System Under Test (SUT).  Garrett Cooper actually set up
the original testbed
that I am using now at iXsystems. :)

It would be cool to put together tools like Jenkins, Kyua, and conductor to
do more advanced testing
of FreeBSD before the project puts out releases.
