Fedora14: Very very slow NFS write performance

[Don Quixote de la Mancha]

Try writing to a different type of filesystem.  It might be the
filesystem's fault.  MacTCP on the Classic Mac OS got a real bad rap
because FTP writes were very slow, but it was easy to show that the
problem was in the Heirarchical Filesystem.

Is your destination filesystem journaled?  Maybe flushing the journal
is causing your hit.
