I'm not familiar with amd, what implications would that have?

What worries me is people using amd against a v2 server, also those
tunables are good at tickling bugs in other NFS implementations
(as well as ours, at least a year or two ago).  So if amd is smart
enough to downgrade then yes, otherwise perhaps just a comment to
indicate that the person may want to use better mount options... ?
