Have you looked at tcpdump output while this is happening? you might see some
clues ...
If you are using udp, just do
tcpdump udp or icmp and port nfs
You might see a lot of icmp error messages, and you'll certainly see the
fragmentation.
You might try switching to tcp. Most likely udp is the culprit here, since
any sort of network problem at all will result in data loss. Tcp is not
noticeably slower and will work much better. On modern systems tcp and rsize
and wsize of 32k is pretty standard.
