as i recall resiferfs doesnt work because it doesnt keep a fixed
mapping between file objects and what afs would consider the inode.
i believe people have been lucky with using a reisferfs cache filesystem
but it had to be on a seperate partition.  normally, its journaling
that creates trouble for caching filesystems.  personally, unless you
have a need for massive amounts of cache, use memcache.

search through the list archives for a better answers about this.

this info doesnt appear to be in the wiki, so perhaps it needs one.
(and one that is more correct than my vague ramblings).
