Client loop mount over NFS is slow.

Suppose, I've loop mounted some file on the NFS client; the file exists on an share NFS server, then if I transfer some data from from my HDD to this loop mounted FS (on the client), then the transfers are super slow and in bursts.

Any remedies?

Does it work better if you loop mount it on the NFS server, export the result, and mount the exported looped filesystem on the client as a normal NFS mount?
