NFS problems with SVN?

Hi,

I seem to be able to trig NFS hangs when doing SVN operations with
ra_local to an NFS mounted volume. Anybody else experience problems?

(This is with Red Hat 7.2 mounting the SVN repository from a Solaris
machine.  I realize this is, as usual, probably Red Hat's fault, but
I'm curious whether it is a known problem, and whether it is possible
to fix it without reinstalling the OS)

Okay, I see.  The fun thing is that it doesn't corrupt the database,
but instead hangs the %%R¤#¤ process, and any processes that
subsequently tries to access the disk.  

*sigh* Well, I guess I found one more reason to install WebDAV.
