I used NFS when using vagrant shared folders a lot a couple of years ago. Didn't really pay much attention to the performance, I must admit, which was fine for my purposes; for me it only really needed to crash less than the default shared folder stuff...
I did have to supply an extra "mount_options:['actimeo']=1" option to the synced_folder command to make file watcher-type systems work tolerably. With the defaults I'd often be waiting several seconds before any changes made by the host would be picked up by the guest.
