If you exported from HP-UX to linux then what do you mean by

i have already done everything in linux side for exporting.

You are moving from which box to which box?
Because I have never heard of a limitation on HP-UX side, I used to on 11.11 when changing disks from boxes (ok on SAN...) used to mount NFS between HP-UX and copy far more... (up to 72GB...) the only difference is the size of file... I dont remember if I did with files that size because not sure I had anything like that... and it was more that 4 years ago...
But I remember some solaris doing FTP with big files bringing down networks years ago that is why I say time is important, have you checked the elapsed time each time with / with no gziped? does it give always the same result?
That sort of thing I may consider using other commands than a mv via NFS

NAME
umount.nfs, umount.nfs4 - unmount a Network File System SYNOPSIS
umount.nfs dir [-fvnrlh ] DESCRIPTION
umount.nfs and umount.nfs4 are a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality. umount.nfs4 and umount.nfs are meant to be used by the umount(8) command for unmounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone command with limited functionality. dir is the directory on which the file system is mounted. OPTIONS
-f Force unmount the file system in case of unreachable NFS system. -v Be verbose. -n Do not update /etc/mtab. By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip delet- ing an entry. -r In case unmounting fails, try to mount read-only. -l Lazy unmount. Detach the file system from the file system hierarchy now, and cleanup all references to the file system as soon as it is not busy anymore. -h Print help message. NOTE
For further information please refer nfs(5) and umount(8) manual pages. FILES
