Try this:

At the same time as doing a:

dd if=/dev/zero of=ick bs=8192 count=1024

to an NFS mounted directory in one xterm do an:

ls

from within the same NFS mounted directory in another xterm.  What happens
is the ls hangs until the dd finishes.  I don't think this the correct
behavior and it certainly is not the behavior I saw under 2.1.0R. Anybody
have a clue here?   Otherwise, -current is shaping up nicely -- it's
squeezing another 15% speed-up out my Monte Carlo simulator (which, BTW,
uses my own, portable 48 bit generator adapted from Knuth, and which can 
run in parallel on SMP etc...).

Thanx,

Tom
