Well, I can tell my experience about AUFS.

Our use of AUFS is make things easier when netwroking boot  our machines, we
have a base machine that provides a ROOT as RO and some extra folders
to specific hosts, tha contains some extra configurations [like xorg.cong,
lprng and stuff]. And for some machines we also provide a RW folder to store
things like /var/log/ /var, and any modifiedfile at ROOT.

We have 400 netbot terminals booting with PXE and using AUFS at UFPR[1][2],
also we have 10 servers netbooting with PXE and AUFS, those servers
provides.

And at PrD[3] we have 10000 terminals booting with AUFS. PrD is project to
install and maintain[4] computer laboratories at 2100 schools at Parana
State/Brasil, each school have its own server to manage terminals. And we
are to receive more 1000server to install at biger schools, and those
servers will boot using AUFS too.

Well, that's our use case at UFPR/C3SL-Brasil, hope that whats you were
willing to hear =)
