>Description:
The FreeBSD machine acts as an NFS server to 1 OpenBSD router, just providing some freespace at mount point /mnt/mirrors

While attempting large filesystem jobs (such as running chown -R on a subdirectory under the mountpoint or running a 'find /mnt/mirrors') causes the NFS server to hang.   I am also unable to restart nfsd as two of the processes will not die.

Subsequently the filesystem is also not responding and is unusable even on the local machine.
>How-To-Repeat:
Running large jobs from an NFS client, such as a chown -R or find
