Also, any idea if Linux has the same performance problems with regard to locking as Solaris over NFS when db.* files are on a NetApp?

Doring a support call last week the Perforce engineer mentioned that NFS on Linux is too old to have the feature that causes locking-related NFS delays on Solaris. As I understood him the problem is that the Solaris NFS server polls the lock daemons on the systems to which a file share is exported, asking them whether any of them has a lock in the region of interest.
