I tried nmon but I did not see anything out of the ordinary...
But when I try to see the NFS stats, nmon (11f-1.el5.rf) coredumps.
I tried the iostat nfs option (kernel 2.6.18-8.1.6.el5, should support it) but 
it did not show anything.
nfsstat shows no apparent activity...
nfs is normaly only used to put files or modify small files (<1K) "from times 
to times", while http is used to get files.

That could be it...
It's always a question of space vs speed...

Thx for all the answers,
