I have several heavily used NFS servers, currently running FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE. I'm getting jammed up with all my nfsd processes being busy, so clients see slow connections to the server. I have the nfsd starting with a count of 20, which is the max set in the nfsd.c file. Are there any risks I should be aware of before bumping up the max to say 40, or even 50? What would it take to make this a sysctl adjustable value? Should the max be bumped higher by default nowdays? Thanks - any help/hints is appreciated.
