According to the man page, the sync (and async) options are only valid 
on ext2, ext3 and ufs.  It doesn't cause an error when used, but it does 
not appear to have an effect and does not show up as one of the options 
in /proc/mounts.  Here are the NFS options I am using,I get fairly good 
performance from this setup (2 backends writing to a third file server):

rw,noatime,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,intr,nfsvers=3
