It was not my intent to sound condescending, although I can see how my post might be construed as such. I apologize for the misunderstanding!

I was merely clarifying that there are infrastructures out there that do not make it an option to get away from NFS (unless one works in, or has very close ties to, the IT department). NFSdb is not meant as a replacement for a database that has dozens of experienced database experts working to improve it every week. NFSdb is a simpleton's attempt to play nice with NFS while still supplying a (sufficiently robust) on-disk storage mechanism without the hassle of setting up a server.

Cheers!
