Here are the results from testing both patches : =
http://home.totalterror.net/freebsd/nfstest/results.html
Both tests ran for about 14 hours ( a bit too much, but I wanted to =

and were done first after a fresh reboot.
The only noticeable difference seems to be much more context switches =
with Ivan's patch.
