i too am new to Wireshark, but may i suggest you look
at using the filters to  
capture nfs packet types. 
 
as you can filter on capture and filter on the view of a captured file,
filtering more on the capture 
should make your analysis of captureed data more nfs only. 
 
there are a lot of different packet types on the wire you probly want
to filter out. 
 
just a thought, good luck, jackc...

  I am begun using wireshark and I am very impressed with it. Currently
we use NFS for many of our storage needs. I would like to know if
there are any tips or tricks people do with wireshark for performance
analysis: I would like to figure out how small, large  file reads
perform on the network. And how NFS compares to other filesystems such
as Samba or GPFS in a similar situation. I think this is broad
question but would like some insight from experts.
TIA
