This is the heart of the message. It took nfsd more than 120 real
seconds to write to disk. This is a bad thing, generally.
It indicates huge wait on i/o issues, not necessarily memory issues.
Although if swap and the NFS share are on the same disk and or
controller, it could happen to be related.
I would focus on resolving the disk i/o issue here.
Good Luck!
