I'm running make -j100 buildworld with /usr/obj NFS-lookback mounted
from /home/nfs to see if it survives (the previous one didn't finish).
I'll run other benchmarks on that mount point if it's finished.
One thing I noticed is that, with the following line in /etc/exports
/home/nfs 127.0.0.1
(and is mounted to /usr/obj) one would usually get `permision denied'
(unless you specified one of -map* options) if you for example try to create
a file on the NFS mounted filesystem as root; with vfsx17.patch, it creates
a file with uid = 4294967296 instead. Is this normal?
And if I changed the directory permission on /home/nfs, the permission
was not propagated to /usr/obj until I restarted mountd. I don't remember
if the same thing happens on other systems, though.

That's a very nice feature to have! Every time I edit exports file, it
never did what I wanted until I cut it down to a single entry.
