NFSD_SLOT_CACHE_SIZE holds the encoded operations past the SEQUENCE operation. ca_maxresponsesize_cached (draft-ietf-nfsv4-minorversion1-29) is the xdr encoded size of the request including the RPC header. Since the RPC header size varies with security flavor credential and verifier. we cannot set an
accurate ca_maxresponsesize_cached. Use NFSD_SLOT_CACHE_SIZE as an
approximate ca_maxresponsesize_cached - we will have at least that much space.

Here we set the maxresp_cached equal to 512 which is normally much less than the maxresp_sz, and we return this value to client in CREATE_SESSION. This leads to a bunch of NFSERR_TOO_BIG_TO_CACHE errors for OPENs, READs, etc. In theory the client should be able to recover (or better prevent this by not setting cachethis=1).
Is there a reason that maxresp_cached is so small ?
