Well, do you care if your fileserver hangs clients when the nfs server

No. Or rather, the probability of the afs server itself becoming
unreachable is nearly as high, and I am comfortable with the
differential.
Are you?
If a fileserver becomes unreachable, clients will fail over to another one,
for replicated volumes.
If a fileserver ACK's a client's request and takes forever to fulfull it,
the client will happily wait forever, as long as the fileserver keeps
responding to ack-requests.
