Evolution vs NFS

[Braden McDaniel]

I am using NFS (v4) home directories.  The server is running Fedora 16; 
the client is running Fedora 17.  Recently, when running Evolution on 
the client, I find that Evolution becomes completely unresponsive if I 
attempt to compose a message.  (It freezes up before showing the new 
message window.) When I look at the process in the GNOME system monitor, 
the evolution process' "Waiting Channel" is alternating between 
"nfs_wait_bit_killable" and "rpc_wait_bit_killable".

Has anyone else using NFS-mounted home directories on F17 observed this 
sort of thing?
