• Comparable works: what are other people doing to solve the problem?
  
  
  • NFS and INN: a good way to do a cluster?
    
    
    • The disadvantages:
      
      
      • NFS server is a single point of failure, clients cannot mount multiple spools, both because the INN software doesn't understand how to do that and because NFS tends to cause clients to lock up when server goes away
        
        
      • NFS transaction load can only scale so far, server can only scale so far
