A few comments.
You can disable your rpc.lockd and rpc.statd by running:
stopsrc -s rpc.statd
stopsrc -s rpc.lockd
and/or commenting them out of /etc/rc.nfs.
I don't recommend you do this unless you don't care about locking.
to stop NFS use: sh /etc/nfs.clean
to enable NFS use: sh /etc/rc.nfs
To enable NFS now and at system reboot use: /usr/etc/mknfs -B
You can check /etc/inittab for a line like:
rcnfs:2:wait:/etc/rc.nfs > /dev/console 2>&1 # Start NFS Daemons
to see if nfs is enabled at system reboot.
BTW: if you can mount a remote filesystem but trying to access files
hangs then you haven't started NFS run "/usr/etc/mknfs -B" to fix.

AIX doesn't use /etc/fstab because they are using a stanza based table
in /etc/filesystems. Try editing that file instead.
I have no idea why your NFS performance is slow.

First rule of software: Throw the first one away.
