The hard part is using an export of hdfs that is below the root (ie /). To do that you have to add this property to the NFS Gateway's safety valve:
dfs.nfs3.export.point/occurrence-download/dev-downloads
And then mount from your client (with appropriate permissions) as:
mount -t nfs -o vers=3,proto=tcp,nolock c1n1.gbif.org:/occurrence-download/dev-downloads /mnt/testnfs

Comment: From a single client machine the transfer rate seems to be limited to about 50-60 Mb (megabytes) per second, so about half the theoretical max of a single gigabit connection. This seems sufficient for the purposes of reading downloads to serve to users. We should use the java api to do our writes though.
