I really don't think that will actually help much, since edu/net/com will be
huge.

I'd say the best solution would be an automount style mechanism - don't have
all the cells mounted, only mount them virtually when they are actually
accessed. You'd obviously want to do something to prevent 'ls /afs' from
trying to mount everything.
