We experienced similar problems using autofs-3.x with both RedHat(7.3, 8.0, 2.1, 9.0) and Slackware(9.0). This seems to be fixed with autofs-4.x. We have used 4.0.0-pre10 for a couple of years without problem and are now trying 4.1.2. The problems we were seeing dealt with and automounted nfs server not responding, the mount would hang, autofs would not timeout and would hang, only a hard reset would reboot the computer.
It wouldn't have anything to do with autofs, though. Rather, it's an NFS problem.
