============== NFS HOWTO Says this ========= 
This is a problem with the fsync() function in 2.2
kernels that causes all sync-to-disk requests to be
cumulative, resulting in a write time that is
quadratic in the file size. If you can, upgrading to a
2.4 kernel should solve the problem. Also, exporting
with the no_wdelay option forces the program to use
o_sync() instead, which may prove faster. 

======================================

He is using FC1.. This means he is using atleast 2.4.21 kernel and hence the above 
problem is not with the kernel.  Is the LAN thru a hub or a switch.. I  have used both 
and it seems that a hub slows things down a lot.... If this does not help... try 
asking on IRC #fedora on irc.freenode.net.  Those guys can help you with almost 
anything..

So look out for info on net, that may help.
