btw, free tip. want to boost FreeBSD NFS performance? kill nfsiod. sounds strange, i know, but it works. also, don't limit yourself to working with just one NFS mount. mount the same partition 4 places on your client and get roughly 4x the performance. (plus, this is scalable. say you want to split up/mirror your NFS server. just create a new one, copy the contents over, and mount each server 2x instead of 4x. or both 4x. why not?)
