ps: It would be nice if someone with the right expertise could explore
other things in TCP specifically for NFS. For example, I don't see
why a retransmit timeout should go above about 100msec
nfs/rpc shouldn't retransmit at all over tcp except when there has been a
reconnect. Tcp might retransmit, but modern implementations will always
choose the right timeout dynamically, unless packet loss is excessive.
