Hi Oliver,
yes, i thought that was the case, but is it intended to support distributed

we keep duplicate copies of all data. When I access , say,
hammer://mycluster/storage , i'd expect 'storage' to be 8 TB .

ok, now that you mention SSI it seems it should do what I clumsily try to
explain :) I should probably start trailing Draco too ;)
