It is returning the time out only during the hang; the rest of the time 
it works normally.

No blocking.

Using UDP or TCP makes no difference. "rpcinfo -{u,t} host nfs" both give 
a timeout during the hang, and work normally during other times.

It is not related to any script that I can find. It is not happening at 
_exactly_ the same time all the time, although it is similar within a few 
minutes.

No differences that I can find.

Yes. I can even run an iperf server on the host during the hang, and from
a client I run iperf -c and get normal performance.

No other service appears to be impacted at all.

Yes, can do.
