How does it know if files are added/removed/modified in the user's
home directory?
What is the behavior like if the home directory is accessed over a
network?
What is the behavior like if the user is logged into 10 machines at
once which share the same home directory?
Is this somehow superior to the Mac DOS ("Denial Of Service")
"mdworker" implementation or will Solaris finally catch up to the Mac
in its ability to destroy the network and servers as well as local CPU
and disk bandwith? On the Mac I often find that OS-X's indexing
service consumes massive resources during bulk file copies.
