Personally, if you are looking at a distributed file system, I would look much more strongly at one of the more modern SAN, NAS, or distributed, highly parallel replicating systems rather than AFS.


My main point for looking into AFS is that I'm trying to find something better than NFS, if such a beast indeed exists.

Well, I'd probably go with NFSv4 instead of AFS given that it seems to have what you want and doesn't have things which you don't seem to need.

http://www.nfsv4.org/
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3530.txt

NFSv4 is probably a little better cooked at this point than AFS. It also probably has better support on things like NetApps since NetApp is one of the contributors to the RFC.
