NFS slow/strange performance

Hi!
FreeBSD 9.1-RC2 fileserver, referenced by F1, with ZFS. 2 NICs.
2 workstations are connected via 2 separate network cards on F1. Cross over cables. No more external connections from F1 (but the iDrac). Workstation nr 2 we call W2. I am using NFS (not ZFS sharenfs) to share a ZFS file system. Client is using Linux Mint v11. When I rsync files from F1 to W2 it goes very slow, 1.9 MB/s. Running zpool iostat -1 it looks like no activity for about 10-15 seconds and then some activity for a couple of seconds. If I SSH into F1 and press Enter zpool iostat -1 shows activity. To speed up the copy procedure I better press Enter constantly when SSH´d into F1. Speed will be 36 MB/s. How come? What can be wrong set?

Best regards, Magnus
