Here's what we use for mount options in /etc/fstab, basically culled
from the O'Reilly NFS book.

rw,tcp,intr,noatime,nfsv3,-w=3D65536,-r=3D65536

You have to be careful with noatime if you have applications that use
atime, but we didn't so that cuts down on the number of reads
significantly.

Regards,

Mike
