But if we implement NFS/VSOCK and it turns out to be a success, I expect people will start using it for things that weren't expected and complaining about performance issues. I guess I'm not too concerned about performance of the initial implementation but it'd be nice to know that there's the possibility to optimize later on. But if our answer will be just to go figure out how to use a proper NFS/TCP mount instead then I suppose that's OK. --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
