It shouldn't matter, but try 8192; then, if the problem persists, try
1024. If that solves it, increase by 1024 until to problem returns. Then
go back one.

Also, you might try doing NFS over TCP; suffix ",tcp" to your options
there. 

FWIW, I use variations on this:

ip.ad.re.ss:/dir/ect/ory /mnt/point nfs rw,hard,intr,nosuid,nodev,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,tcp 0 0

/i.
