CONFIG_NFSD_TCP=y but buyer beware.... FC1 will do this much better
plus its configured in by default....

Well it depends on how clean your networks is. If you're getting a bunch 
of retransmits
using UDP, then TCP should smooth things out (since TCP is much better 
at dealing
with retransmits that RPC over UDP), but if the traffic is already 
pretty smooth, then
performance may decrease a very small amount due to the TCP overhead.....
But the gains of using a smarter transport (i.e. TCP) outweighs  the very
small performance hit... imho...
