They modify data in that directory.  I explained further in another email
but we have several Java apps that do similar things, constantly
changing/adding xml files and all kinds of logs and other stuff for running.

I think in most cases it would require a remerge.  Generally speaking I'm
only dealing with a single client using this data at a time so my concerns
are more 'if the data is not there completely, automatically reprovision it
with a copy as up to date as possible' rather than changing things.  If
there are specific file configuration files I need to change within the data
then I handle that within Puppet like any other application.

Hmm, I'm not logged in to check at the moment but generally we're talking a
maximum of 4G of data for one of these applications, and some closer to 1G.
