current state of nfs between FreeBSD and ESXi

[Marko Cupać]

Hi,

a few years ago I opted to replace our NFS server from FreeBSD to
CentOS, because I was getting sub-optimal speeds between ESXi client
and FreeBSD server.

I never tried the workaround described here:

Years have passed, and both FreeBSD and ESXi are now at a few major
versions higher than at the time I last tried to make them talk NFS. Has
anything changed in the meantime? Would I have the same problem now
with FreeBSD 11.0 and ESXi 6.5?

Thank you in advance,
