I'm only subscribed to freebsd-stable, so I missed the original thread,
but reading the lines below, a question arises:

Are you aware that NFSv3 seems to be seriously broken, at least for
FreeBSD 3.1 clients connecting to a Solaris 2.6 server?

Has that been fixed for current resp. stable?
If not, what can I do to help getting this fixed?


Symptoms are the following: We upgraded a perfectly running 2.2.7 client
to 3.1, and out of a sudden NFS performed sluggish, sometimes even hanging
for ten, twenty seconds, even five minutes or more.

Adding the NFSv2 compatibility option to the AMD tables solved the
problem.
