I would guess that the initial setup of an AFS cell stops most people from answering such a question. I did a little searching and couldn't find any performance numbers. I did find a few interesting links: IBM Redbook on using AFS for web content management http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/pubs/pdfs/redbooks/sg245857.pdf Performance of Several HTTP Demons on an HP 735 Workstation http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/InformationServers/Performance/V1.4/report.html Doesn't Amy work at a site with an AFS cell? Perhaps she could run a few tests. Nate
