I'll probably play around with my system this weekend if I don't have an
exam next week. My PostgreSQL partition is pretty empty, so I'll use that
for the test files. I'll also do a test transferring a file > 4GB (single
file) and see how life goes. :)
I wonder if mongo.pl will be any good ...

Even 2.4.9 + pending patches?

No. XFS uses a pretty traditional inode implementation that doesn't break
most VFS stuff. A few minor bugs snuck into release 1.0, but release 1.0.1
is supposed to handle NFS properly. I'm using 2.4.9 (kernel) which has
even more little fixes post-1.0.1, which uses 2.4.5.

Egad. I wonder, though, if this is because NFS on Linux is supposed to be
br0ken. :(
