1. Check Network connection between NFS server and clients for  TX/RX
errors.
2. Are you using automount to mount NFS if yes , check timeout period
3. Check by changing the NFS parameter sync to async,
4.  Increase the number of running nfsd by modify /etc/sysconfig/nfs
    RPCNFSDCOUNT=16  (default is 8)
    Then restart nfsd.
5. check dmesg for NFS error
