A few days ago I posted to nfs-discuss with a proposal to add some mount/share options to change semantics of a nfs-mounted filesystem so that they parallel those of a local filesystem. The main point is that data gets flushed to stable storage only if the client explicitly requests so via fsync or O_DSYNC, not implicitly with every close(). That would give you the performance you are seeking without sacrificing data integrity for applications that need it. I get the impression that I'm not the only one who could be interested in that ;) -Arne > > You'd be better off getting NetApp > _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
