If I understand you right, even a low-latency network, e.g. Infiniband, would not increase performance substantially since the main bottleneck is that the NFS server always has to write data to stable storage. Is that correct?
Correct. You can essentially simulate the NFS semantics by doing a fsync after every file creation and before every close on a local tar extraction.
