Under real user load though it just fell on its arse very quickly and a quick fall back to v3 was implemented.

Will, could you please expand on what went wrong? What kind of symptoms did you experience? And did everything work prefectly when you just reverted to v3?

I can't recall *exactly* what was going on as it was a while back.

We had 3 or 4 identical clients mounting maildirs. Under relatively light real user load NFS 4 mounts would lock up and all sorts of other weirdness. reverting back to v3 resolved the problems.

I never got round to trying again. I would probably have waitied until we moved to a newer major version of CentOS.
