I am not quite sure whether we are on the right track, without further metrix posted. Even a default ext3 config is not likely to be the bottleneck of this wait i/o issue. What about RAID strip unit size? What about NFS options (noac, cache, rsize, wsize, etc)? Especially noac. I am quoting related section from nfs man page:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
noac Disable all forms of attribute caching entirely. This
extracts a server performance penalty but it allows two
different NFS clients to get reasonable good results
when both clients are actively writing to common
filesystem on the server.

Dear all,
I have a Local zone , where users feel that performance is not good.
Is it wise to collect the inputs from the local zone rather than taking from the global zone.
And also Can I tune from Global zone , so that it will reflect in local zone.

NAME
nfsstat -- display NFS statistics
SYNOPSIS
nfsstat [-cseuv] [-w wait] [-n net|user] [-m [mountpath]]
DESCRIPTION
nfsstat displays statistics kept about NFS client and server activity, active user activity, exported directories, and mount information. In
the absence of any options, nfsstat displays NFS client and server statistics.
The options are as follows:
-c Show NFS client statistics.
-e Show NFS server exported directory statistics.
-m [mountpath]
Show NFS mount information.
-s Show NFS server statistics.
-u Show NFS server active user statistics.
-w wait
Display a shorter summary at wait second intervals.
-n net|user
Show network addresses as numbers, or show users as uid numbers. This option can appear multiple times.
-v Show additional information (if available).
OUTPUT
The data fields that nfsstat displays for each set of statistics are:
Client Information:
