The default options since SuSe 9.x have been for TCP and NFSv3 by

I wouldn't put any money on that statement!
Regularly we have a system falling back to udp and using NFS-2;
Thus trunkating and corrupting the xen-images that are all way larger
than 2GB (all of them are between 6 and 20GB)
I wouldn't write something I hadn't checked. Here's the pudding:

Other nice "feature" is that sometimes portmapper does not come up
after
a unplanned reboot, causing very long delays.
Portmap relies on both the syslog service and the network service to
come up before it will, the problem with hard reboots usually lies
within those two coming back up in my experience.
