Just for information:
Debian Sarge Kernel 2.6.8 OpenAFS 1.3.76 on AFS Fileserver (with XFS for
/vicepa) and Debian Sarge Kernel 2.4.27 OpenAFS 1.3.76 as client seems not to
have any problems with large files.
Createt on the client a laaarge 8GB .tar file stored on the server and copied
back, no problem. Handle some more big files (dvd-images), no problems til yet.
And yes, diskcache, not memcache.
