This was in reference to file layout implementation details, so exofs
isn't a contender there.

As far as exofs is concerned a pnfs implementation based on it has just
as much toy status as the current gfs2 one.  While the pnfs side of it
might as well be a lot better, a filesystem that lacks all the integrity
and scalability features developed in the last 30 years can't be
considered more than a proof of concept.
