Performance Comparison and Tuning of Free Operating Systems
http://innominate.org/~tgr/slides/performance/tuning.htm

 A performance comparison of FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Linux 2.2/2.4 and
 Solaris 7 and 8. (Presented at LinuxTag in Stuttgart, Germany, on July 1,
 2000.) It shares the basic details of the tests with graphed results. All
 the tests were performed on identical hardware; the same hardware was
 used for clients in the tests; and the the services were configured as
 identical as possible on all of the systems. The comparisons tested
 filesystem performance, NFS performance, webserver performance, database
 performance and scalability (parallel compiling).

(I didn't look for the URL directly to the NFS results.)
