Imperial College is in the process of testing the operation of afs in a
scientific and engineering environment. Many of our engineers use CAD
packages such as IDEAS, which can generate very large files. We are
concerned about the impact this may have on local cacheing. Does
anyone have operational experience of using a package like ideas
with afs ?
