Correct, and the point-to-point bandwidth is limited by the maximum RX window size because of the bandwidth delay product. As round-trip latency increases, at some point the window size becomes insufficient to keep the…
Not everyone ignored it but unlike nfs it didn't come in the box with the operating system, and you had to pay for it. In addition, AFS provided strong cryptographic authentication and wire privacy which meant that it…

DCE DFS (developed at Transarc) was originally supposed to be AFS 4.0 before it was contributed to DCE. After the contribution it became backward incompatible with AFS 3.x. The RPC layer, the authentication protocol,…
The cephfs model of a file system logically constructed from an object store closely mirrors the AFS architecture. The AFS fileserver is horribly misnamed. Whereas AFS 1.0 fileserver exported the contents of local…
The Amdahl's Law limitations are specific to the implementation and not at all tied to the protocols. The 1990 AFS 3.0 server design was built upon a cooperative threading system ("Light Weight Processes") designed by…

Even with afs3-rxkad-k5 the wire encryption is a watered down variant of DES called fcrypt and the use of encryption is the choice of the client. There is nothing that an administrator can do to prevent AFS3 clients…
