What do you use to mount this on a mac? My bottleneck with my NAS is the atrocious speeds I get over samba or NFS, and even after spending a ton of time messing with the configs, I can’t get more than sluggish speeds.

I followed some guides I found online and ended up with the following:

    ~ cat /etc/auto_master 
    #
    # Automounter master map
    #
    +auto_master            # Use directory service
    #/net                   -hosts          -nobrowse,hidefromfinder,nosuid
    /home                   auto_home       -nobrowse,hidefromfinder
    /Network/Servers        -fstab
    /-                      -static
    /-                 auto_nfs     -nobrowse,nosuid

    ~ cat /etc/auto_nfs 
    /System/Volumes/Data/Users/ahepp/nfs/public -fstype=nfs,vers=4,resvport,rw nfs://10.128.1.2:/zpa/nfs/public

I haven't done a lot of performance testing, but I have no problem playing 10MB/s blurays off the NFS share (and that's via wifi)

On the FreeBSD server in the closet:

    root@tlon:~ # cat /etc/exports 
    V4: /
    /zpa/nfs/public -mapall=nobody
