Per our private thread, the salient point is "on linux" and not simply
1.2 versus 1.4

The AFS client used to cache writes on the local disk until a file is closed,

Consider the following script:
#!/bin/sh
while [ 1 = 1 ]; do
date
sleep 10
done
Now I run "script.sh >> afs12.out" on a 1.2.13 client, and "script.sh >>
afs14.out" on a 1.4.4 one. Except for the AFS client version, the systems are
identical (Scientific Linux 3, same kernel & patches, ...).
On any 3rd client system (version doesn't matter), I see afs14.out growing by
30 bytes every 10 seconds, while afs12.out stays at size 0 until I kill the
script.
Is this change intentional? I always thought the old behaviour really helps
in environments with many clients? Any insights much appreciated.
Thanks,
Stephan
