Re: ls /afs: It takes a long time

[John F Carr]

I think the top level of AFS at a site should only have local directories.
There should be a subdirectory of /afs where mountpoints to remote cells are
kept.  This has a couple advantages: (1) "ls /afs" is fast and does not
cause the machine to become aware of remote cells (for every remote cell the
machine knows about, there is net traffic for callback maintainance), (2)
pathnames to local files are shorter.
