If raising that limit then causes reports of:

WARNING: svc_cots_kdup no slots free
WARNING: svc_clts_kdup no slots free

together with the NFS clients getting EIO errors back, you may need to 
increase the size of the duplicate check cache in the kernel rpcmod by 
raising rpcmod:cotsmaxdupreqs and rpcmod:maxdupreqs (not sure that all 
Illumos distros use same default values).
