I am more concerned with having more connections than needed on the server... specially as the number of clients increase. Thanks to Darren Pilgrim I decreased sysctl vfs.nfs.iodmaxidle to 30 instead of 120. That way those nfs client programs will only wait 30 seconds of idle time before dissapearing. I am also considering setting the upper limit for clients to 10. > but I seem to remember running nfsd with a larger -n argument starting > mroe daemons ... but that might not be FreeBSD.
