FAI performance

Well,

in my not quite so 10GbE  env I experience NFS timeouts when doing 16
machines at a time.
Moving the fai configspace onto ramdisk helps for the rooms equipped with
1Gbps,
yields _lots_ of 'NFS not responding, still trying' for one forgotten room
which has still has 100Mbit....

Hence my original question  (which seems to be in line with Nicolas Courtel
experience)

Regards
Michal
