Hi,
A very short time (<100M) after reading from data stored in a fscache'd nfs
(nfs3 or nfs4, doesn't matter), the cache gets disabled with something like:

(currently 2.6.30-rc8 686 Debian kernel image; cachefilesd 0.9-2; cache
storage is a local PATA drive. Not much other system activity.)
What may be strange is that I'm nfs-mounting from localhost, the exported
drive is an USB disk (... and this computer only has USB 1, so I'm trying to
accelerate this a bit. 750G drive on USB 1 for backup is not much fun. If
fsc only accelerates the read dirvish should already run much faster ... and
if fsc would run with enabled write caching ...)
Just tell me if you need other data. (I'm not on the list!)
cheers

was not identified but it was identified as being that machine.
