It's been about 22 hours since I flipped the sysctl and it hasn't
happened once yet. Of course I don't know what the users are up to
right now, so I'll continue to monitor.
This is the script I ended up with to monitor:
nfsstat -dW | awk 'BEGIN { n = 0 } (n == 0) && ($12 == 0) { n = n + 1;
system("date"); next } (n > 0) && ($12 == 0) { system("date; procstat -k 1184
1198; netstat -n -p tcp"); exit(0) } { n = 0 }'
This should (if I haven't botched it) trigger only if two consecutive
seconds show no forward progress.
