Arguably the fault lies with their app which should have used a database
to start with.
You can of course do the simpler thing and use the php.ini file setting
to move the sessions off NFS into local storage.
Its not possible to say whether that will improve speed however. A lot
depends on how the NFS is set up and the speed and congestion of the LAN
over which it runs.

Ineptocracy
(in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) – a system of government where the least capable to
lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the
members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are
rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a
diminishing number of producers.
