Why all the GETATTR calls? Are you running with 'noac' set?

I don't have a 2.6.15 kernel to run with, but on a recent git pull, I
get a total of 6 GETATTR calls when I run your nfsbench program.

The number of READ calls is 1, and the number of WRITE calls is 161 (I'm
running with 64k wsize).

Cheers,
  Trond
