beside that, i think that the network-protocol could have been designed 
much simpler and more firewall-friendly.

BTW: i am one of those, that think that NFS is faster than hostfs.
I cannot explain why, but i would guess, that - at least for parallel 
file-access - the networking-code required less context-switches, since 
the network-packets are perhaps queued before giving them to the 
host-system.

That's just a guess, so you may prove me wrong ;-)
