Is anyone using NFS for anything?

After upgrading to V5R3 we have noticed significant (by a factor of
about 10, what used to run 2-3 hours now runs all day) degradation in
throughput on an NFS connection.  (Mapped drive to Win 2000 using
Omni-lite 4.13 NFS client)

We've run traces and Supportline says that it is unlikely that they can
significantly improve the performance as 90% of the conversation time
takes place outside of the iSeries.  However, the V5R2 --> V5R3 upgrade
definitely started this problem.
