Actually, no.  In fact, I just did a quick test, with a 500mb file, and 
as root, I deleted the 500mb, and my df doesn't report the newly freed 
space - I did this locally, with no NFS in the mix..  I have softupdates 
turned on, and quotas turned on (although I just recently turned on the 
quotas after having this problem, so that isn't causing problems).. 

Any ideas anyone?
