You are correct: I was NOT using an NFS mount, it was all done on my (slow) laptop. We were seeing enormous numbers (tens of thousands) of disc/directory access calls that I was very worried about if said disk was on NFS. Part of this was due to the fact that back at work in Colorado, I *did* have my $HOME on NFS and I'd recalled seeing some slowness here and there, but I never went back to repeat our profiling exercise at work, so I can't provide numbers on that.
