NFS swap tuning?

Is there any way to tune the parameters "rsize" and "wsize" on NFS mounted
swap partitions? Do these parameters matter in this situation?  The
problem is that a diskless 3/50 mounting it's root and swap from a 3/60's
SCSI disk has sloowed down recently.  Both are running 4.0.3.

The reason I ask about rsize and wsize is that we found it necessary to
set these values to 2048 when mounting disks from a 3/280 which resides on
a different subnet.  In both cases the NFS traffic is competing with our
campus "Backbone" network traffic.  The 3/60 and 3/50 are NOT insulated
from the backbone by routers.

Please respond by email and I'll summarize.
