Rick,
I have good news. I upgraded to 8.2-stable and i ran all four different tests (nfs client new and old and over udp and tcp) and found that there is no leak in either. ALl of them behave almost the same, i couldn't find any difference. The speed i achieved on 1Gb link is 52Mb/s. The only difference is that i can't umount new nfs client even if there are no processes using this mount point. Thanks for help
