No, he means use TCP for NFS (which is also the default).
I suspect that sshfs's relatively poor performance is having an impact
on your transfer. I have a 30TB filesystem which I rsync over an
OpenVPN link, and building the file list doesn't take that long (maybe
an hour?). (The links themselves are reasonably fast; if yours are not
that would have a negative impact too.)
If you have the space on the jump host, it may end up being faster to
rsync over ssh (not using NFS or sshfs) from node 1 to the jump host,
then from the jump host to node 2.
