Just thought I'd share this...
I've been doing some acceptance testing on 9.3 prior to upgrading my
production NFS servers. My most recent test is running bonnie++ on
192 Ubuntu VMs in parallel, to independent directories in the same
server filesystem. It hasn't fallen over yet (will probably take
another day or so to complete), and peaked at about 220k ops/s (but
this was NFSv4 so there's no FHA and it takes at least two ops for
every v3 RPC[1]). bonnie++ is running with -D (O_DIRECT), but I'm
actually just using it as a load generator -- I don't care about the
output.
I have this system configured for a maximum of 64 nfsd threads, and
the test load has had it pegged for the past eight hours. Right now
all of the load generators are doing the "small file" part of
bonnie++, so there's not a lot of activity but there are a lot of
synchronous operations; it's been doing 60k ops/s for the past five
hours. Load average maxed out at about 24 early on in the test, and
has settled around 16-20 for this part of the test.
Here's what nfsstat -se has to say (note: not reset for this round of
testing):

I'd love to mix in some FreeBSD-generated loads but as discussed a
week or so ago, our NFS client can't handle reading directories from
which files are being deleted.
FWIW, I just ran a quick "pmcstat -T" and noted the following:

I doubt that this is news to anybody. Once I get the production
servers upgraded to 9.3, I'll be ready to start testing 10.1 on this
same setup.

[1] I did previous testing, with smaller numbers of clients, using v3
as that is what we currently require our clients to use. I switched
to v4 to try out the worst case -- after finding an OpenStack bug that
was preventing me from starting more than 16 load generators at a
time.
