Hmmm no help....

How about this?

http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/SshfsFaq

Has a section concerning "locking up"...

Also... how about reporting a bug to the developer?
Send bug reports to  fuse-sshfs@×××××××××××××××××.net. 


I just glossed over the documentation and saw no mention of a null encryption 
engine. If you are willing to use no encryption... maybe you should try 
another transport protocol... NFS works well.

Also sshfs runs via the FUSE architecture.... Not well know for performance, 
more for "as a means to an end" and it runs slow too.

Cheers.
