Not a whole lot of technical content there, but pretty interesting
nonetheless. I *think* that the issues we're seeing are largely in the
NFS client-side kernel code, so bypassing that stack as Oracle is doing
might eliminate the problem. Of course, there's a sizable amount of
code to be written to do that ...
