Not to be a ninny, but a one-write/many read is pretty much the design
scenario for using CacheFS in conjunction with NFS on the client side.
That is, assuming that only one client is doing the writing. If all your
clients are doing writing (just maybe not to the same file), then you
DON'T hav

close after the write to empty the cache) and from then only ever read
the file, will the scheme I had in mind work?
Also, will ZFS really prevent my moun

Hi, I am considering using ZFS so that multiple clients can "share" the
same filesystem. I know that ZFS does not support a distributed filesystem.
The alternative I am considering is to have a single filesystem
