Weird. I’ve done both at scale many times and NFS daemons have always been significantly less problematic (bar the brief period when NFSv4 was new, but I just fell back to NFSv3 for a brief period).
Samba can be set up easily enough if you know what you’re doing. But getting the AD controller part working would often throw up annoying edge case problems. Problems that I never had to deal with in NFS.
Though I will admit that NIS/YP could be a pain if you needed it to sync with NT.

Might just be bad timing then, most of my experience with it was in that v3/v4 transition period. It was bad enough to make me swear off the whole thing.
