I may try that, but not immediately.
According to what you said everything looks right. You've done a good job, and I am as dumbfounded as you are. BTW, do you use locking via NFS. Solaris has a pretty nasty NLM bug which surfaces when used against NetApps. Look into patch 106639 for this and other NFS goodies.

I installed 106639-03. I also installed 106641-01 and 106882-01, mentioned in the notes for 106639-03. The host already had the other patches mentioned in 106639-03's notes. I rebooted the host after patch installation.
The output of `iostat -cxn 10|awk '$8 > 100.0 {print}'` follows. I use it to assess average service time of NFS mounts. v2/UDP/512-byte transfers perform generally better than settings with bigger transfer sizes or v3. 10.16.11[89].10 is the heavily-loaded filer. 10.16.11[89].15 is the lightly-loaded filer. This host uses it without contention from other hosts, yet it has more slow transfer times.
v2/UDP/512-byte transfers:

I prepared more, but my mail client died, losing my composition window. Results for v2/UDP/default sizes and v2/UDP/default sizes are quite similar to the results below for v3/TCP/default sizes.
