The only regression I'm aware of is that is seems a lot faster on NFS
mounted (read, local directories going via an automounter) home
directories.

Has there been a particular change in this area? I'm somewhat concerned
since the wiki mentions that having your home directory on nfs is bad and
wicked and excruitatingly slow (via an automounter, on the last item seems
to be true).

Cheers,
Anand
