Thanks for the quick response Alex... There's no problem yet... It's a new install with 100GbE Mellanox IB and currently at defaults except I bumped the number of NFS daemons to 128. Just researching ways to optimize performance for 36 nodes concurrently accessing the storage server. It is my understanding that setting MTU to 9000 is recommended but that seems to be applicable for 10GbE.

IIRC last time I ran NFS over IPoIB I didn't tune anything and it was fine.
