Yeah I hate that too.


Yes, AFS became PFS.   Anybody have any opinions on PFS, based upon *actual long-term usage*?  As I recall it gets it's speed in part from hogging cycles.  So while you're doing a R/W you might notice other tasks slow down more than usual. I think AFS and SFS do similar.  PFS does allow you to set the filenames to be X chars in length.  Up to 107 chars IIRC.  But you have to set that max figure though.  I don't know how long the FileNote can be though.

Any ideas-- based in fact?
