Hi, in any recent distribution that I tried, the default NFS wsize/rsize 
was 1 MB.

On 10/100 Mbps networks, this causes severe lags, timeouts, and dmesg 
fills with messages like:

 > [  316.404250] nfs: server 192.168.1.112 not responding, still trying
 > [  316.759512] nfs: server 192.168.1.112 OK

Forcing wsize/rsize to 32K makes all the problems disappear and NFS 
access more snappy, without sacrificing any speed at least up to gigabit 
networks that I tested with.

I would like to request that the defaults be changed to 32K.
But I didn't find out where these defaults come from, where to file the 
issue and my test case / benchmarks to support it.

I've initially reported it at the klibc nfsmount program that I was 
using, but this is just using the NFS defaults, which are the ones that 
should be amended. So initial test case / benchmarks there:

Please Cc me as I'm not in the list.

Thank you,
