I see some areas of concern here.  First of all, many of your parameters
indicate that you expect to run relatively high load through this fileserver.
Yet there are only -p 4 server threads defined.  The fileserver will 
automatically
increase this to the minimum of 6, but that still seems quite low.
This low thread number, combined with a very large -busyat value,
means that this fileserver will queue a very large backlog before returning
VBUSY to the client.  Is there a reason you need to keep the fileserver
threads so low?  Would it be possible for you to increase it dramatically
(perhaps 100) and try the test again?
