The NFS mount itself is fine -- it's the underlying hardware that is 
"slow".  Although /opt/public is an entreprise-class 16-disk SCSI RAID, 
it is from 2004, so by today's standards it's quite slow.

I may have a no-cost, perfectly transparent solution, though...  That 
NFS server has a 3-disk 250G RAID array which is perfectly idle.  If it 
produces better performance, I'll separate jobs from /opt/public on the 
server.  The mounts on build and the hudson boxes will remain the same.  
This would also decrease load on /opt/public as well.

Stay tuned.
