Typically I do this because my home machine is a 64bit workhorse, and the other work machine is a 32bit dog. So I do intensive CPU processing (lidar filtering, DEM construction, watershed analysis) on the higher-powered machine, using all local, faster hardware and 64bit OS. If I left the GISDBASE at work on the 32 bit system, I would think the 64bit machine would not be at optimal performance working with data over a DSL connection back to a 32bit old machine with far lower performing hardware. (?) For quick sessions I see sshfs as a nice solutions, but for situations where the data is being processed for hours and hours, it seems an optimal to run it all local on the 64bit fast machine. (?) Nice to learn about the sshfs. Thanks for the tip! Mark Any info would be helpful to understand the pros and cons, since I'm not a hardware guy.
