Try Pawel's suggestion (bigger socket buffers), also remove the
'sync' from the client mount, unless you're truly paranoid. With sync
NFS export the server already guarantees data hits disk when client
thinks it should. Synchronous on the client seems overkill (and
definitely will be slow, if it does what I think it might - if not
it's just redundant)..
Also, make sure you're using TCP, unless your network is 100%
congestion free (any kind of speed-bridging anywhere: you want to use
TCP for NFS).
