How is the optimum number of nfsd processes determined on the server? On
our current setup we have 4 nfs daemons running serving 3 clients
(webservers)

Is the number of daemons to start determined by the number of clients or
the number of files that has to be transferred simultaniously?

Same question goes for the number of nfsiod processes...
