A more interesting comparison for me would be CRFS vs. GFS or OCFS--which, I rather suspect,
is more what the btrfs authors are aiming at.

CRFS and POHMELFS/AFS (what about HAMMER?)

How does HAMMER fit into all of this? Yes, it is being developed for DragonflyBSD, but it
could maybe come into Linux. Does anyone know? :-)

I'd like to know how it's better than NFSv4. The only reason NFSv4 exists is to solve those classic NFS problems. It definitely has client-side caching and POSIX inter-user synchronization of file access.
