I wont speak for anyone else, but the reason I set intr on for NFS
mounts is so that if I turn off the file server I don't get unkillable
processes on the client. Messy sure, and maybe there's a better
solution made since but I really don't like processes stuck in D state
(ie kill -9 won't work). Better the program die in some wierd way than
that...
Have a nice day,
