An unresponsive DNS server would slow NFS to a crawl. If that is the case
you should probably put the relevant IP addreses in /etc/hosts .
Every time you type a command the shell searches all paths to find the
right executable. So it may have to wait for DNS and NFS. The way to
check whether this is happening or not is to type a command, time the response
and then type the same command using the full path. If there is a huge difference
in response time you're having an NFS problem.
