There is really no good reason to use "soft" when using RW.
Just asking, begging for data corruption.

I remember a post many years ago from Guy Harris (you know, one of the guys who actually help invent NFS!)
and it was basically this"

"Never ever ever ever ever ever use soft...."

I know there are case over a WAN where it might help, or maybe if you are using ReadOnly.

rsize and wsize set to 32k on your nfs v3 client?

 Yes.

rsize=32768,wsize=32768,intr,rw,soft,bg,tcp,vers=3

NetApp has suggested I try fiddling with this a bit but I haven't gotten 'round to it yet.
