Often, on my diskless client (every mount is NFS), I'll put an immuable /fastboot on the server in the NFS root directory. It saves the machine from downloading and executing one small program that would do nothing. On some extremely slow arch, there's a noticable difference. (But OpenBSD discontinuated that arch.

Every other type of filesystem can not be checked.
