1. automount: no network locking on host question

Hello -

thanks to the FAQ, I'm able to have a better understanding as to why
I get the constant message to the console "automountd: No network locking
on host: etc..."

I followup question to this.  Would the detection of this condition,
and the display of the message of the console, significantly slow things
down, as the automounter goes about its business?  When changing directories,
or accessing a server on that same host, it seems like an unreasonable
amount of time passes, the evil message is blurted to the console, and then
what ever service I requested of the NFS server completes.

thanks for any insights you can give.  I'm running 2.3 on a Sparc 10.
