As a quick fix I manually created some links so that these cache directories with intensive read and write actions was not on my NFS mounted home directory. so if nothing has been done this problem still exists. For users that have an NFS mounted home and which are not expert users, you can expect that they will be very unsatisfied with applications that behave like described before. In order to have them experience all the applications offered by Ubuntu in a pleasant way, it might be good for Ubuntu package guidelines to create/move these kind of cache dirs to /tmp and notify the user about it. Implementing a guideline of this kind for all packages would definitely ensure much greater user satisfaction.
