How long does a failed nfs mount hang at boot?

Hello, gurus,

I have an unreliable (Windows SFU: not my choice: that's what they have
on the other side) remote nfs server on which I have to mount a
directory of my Solaris 8 box. The mount is in my vfstab, with no
options, which should mean that it's a hard mount.

At the boot sequence, /etc/rc2.d/S73nfs.client is before the startup of
my database, which causes a lag in the startup of my database.

In case the remote nfs server is not up, I was wondering how long it
would be retrying before continuing with the normal boot procedure.
