Fair enough. |

The point being, NBD / AoE / iSCSI are SAN technologies and not |
| 10 |
conducive for multiple clients to access at the same time (without a |
| 11 |
clustered file system). Unlike NFS which is safe for multiple clients |
| 12 |
to access at the same time. So, having multiple distributed build |
| 13 |
machines sort of necessitates NFS (or a clustered file system). |
