In my experience gigabit ethernet is by far good enough to serve a set of |
| 10 |
webservers with a few 10 thousands of web pages. If you experience low NFS |
| 11 |
performance then it may help to use NFS in async mode. |

Afaik Coda and AFS do what you require. I don't know AFS but Coda will not fit |
| 14 |
to your Hardware infrastructure since it is designed to use more nodes. Also |
| 15 |
I doubt if it will provide you with more performance then async NFS. Coda |
| 16 |
(and afaik AFS also) is dedigned to provide exta redundancy of shared data. |

If you don't mind having a single pont of failure then I would recommend async |
| 18 |
NFS. |
