Aie.  It's bad enough if we have a half-dozen or so sysctl's to set to
get decent performance out of the nfs server.  I don't like to hear
that, on top of that, the choice of at least one of those variables is
an art....

We can leave some knobs in there for the people that like to read that
sort of paper, but the rest of the world will need *some* sort of
heuristics.
