Why is nfsd in the kernel ? unfsd had some problems, but were they due to its being user-level or were they just due to its own design ? It seems that sendfile and other http-oriented optimizations should make an user-level nfs server perform just fine. The only problem I can see is the inode-naming (unfsd indeed has a pretty poor semantics regarding moving files across directories). Is that unsolvable at user-level ? How about a tiny bit of help from the kernel ?
