I tried your test case but my internet connection is by far too slow to trigger the problem with your script. However I modified your script by using cp instead of wget. So instead of fetching the file from a remote server I just copy it from the local harddisc to the NFS directory. I hope this modification does not destroy your test case.
The script is still running, but I do not even notice any lag:
------
File download count: 1026 Elapsed: 420 s
20:50:19 up 6:24, 2 users, load average: 3.95, 3.22, 1.94
------
Can you give it a try with "cp" instead of "wget". Does it trigger the problem for you?
