Though the "correct" solution is to get a higher performance and capacity
Ethernet adapter for the FreeBSD system, there is a simple workaround that
will allow satisfactory operation. If the FreeBSD system is the SERVER,
include the option "wsize=1024" on the mount from the client. If the
include the option "-w=1024" on the mount from the client. If the
FreeBSD system is the CLIENT, then mount the NFS file system with the
option "rsize=1024". These options may be specified using the fourth
option "-r=1024". These options may be specified using the fourth
field of the fstab entry on the client for automatic mounts, or by using
the "-o" parameter of the mount command for manual mounts.
It should be noted that there is a different problem,
sometimes mistaken for this one,
when the NFS servers and clients are on different networks.
If that is the case, make CERTAIN that your routers are routing the
necessary UDP information, or you won't get anywhere, no matter
what else you are doing.
In the following examples, "fastws" is the host (interface) name of a
high-performance workstation, and "freebox" is the host (interface) name of
a FreeBSD system with a lower-performance Ethernet adapter. Also,

Nearly any 16-bit Ethernet adapter will allow operation without the above
restrictions on the read or write size.
