Sounds like the normal 90-second NFS grace period to me -- a feature,
not a bug.  If I run 'journalctl | grep grace' on one of my machines
I get:

May 12 17:50:07 fileserver kernel: NFSD: starting 90-second grace period (net ffffffff81c64a00)


This _is_ configurable, but there is an open Debian (wishlist) bug
about that:

Some further discussion justifying the "lease time"/"grace period"
feature, including a possible workaround for the bug above, see:

HTH,
