List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: nfs-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Errors-To: nfs-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net I have around 100 files, currently NFS shared among 5 servers, all servers access the file quite frequently, e.g. 10 hits per second per server. I cannot afford to rync since i want the delay of write as small as possible, e.g. less than 1 second. I want to know, since the file will be accessed quite frequent, does NFS has build-in caching functions that if files are not modified, it will not try to fetch from the network?
