Thanks for the detailed explanation Phil. I hadn't thought about the
context switches that might slow down flow. I was primarily thinking
of something that would be cleaner, and easier to modify and test for
different scenarios. If at some point I get around to playing with a
flow impl

Thanks for the info Phil. While I'm running an I/O performance
experiment, I never want the attributes to expire, so I'm using the -a
option to set it to a really high value.
But for the average pvfs2 setup, what is a useful value? With 5msec,
the cache was continually

though, so maybe I don
