Missed it. After some documentation reading at least three question come |
| 12 |
in mind: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
1) Are linux-2.6 kernels full supported and stable ? |
| 15 |
There is an afs implementation into the kernel but its limited and |
| 16 |
read-only. |
| 17 |
gentoo propose net-fs/openafs-kernel unstable on all archs. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
2) How good is the throughput compared to nfs/samba in a |
| 20 |
single server - ten client setup ? It seem more targeted at |
| 21 |
scalability and reliability then to brute force transfers. |
| 22 |
The aplication that should run on it is based on db3 files, the file |
| 23 |
access (network traffic) is huge. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
3) How cpu/memory intensive is it? We have a zoo of pc varing from |
| 26 |
pentium 3 to athlon 1.8, maximum ram installed is 384 Meg. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
what's your thoughts ? |

In the meantime I've installed the windows version and will make some |
| 31 |
try this week. |

Thanks |
