Yes I had my fair share of issues with NFS too. It works, more than usually but the problem starts whenever it feels like not working. And you can never be sure whenever the tantrum will come. With linux while using the nfs-kernel-server most of the time you need to restart if a problem occurs. And I don't like restarts. A few years ago, slabtop helped me to troubleshoot some memory issues, turned out nfs-kernel-server was leaking. I had to upgrade the kernel. The shame is, there is nothing like nfs to replace nfs. Easy to deploy, easy for clients, works everywhere.
