Afs does make a very nice web back end, but there is enough administrative
overhead that you might not want it just for web service.  It works
particularly well if your working set fits in the cache (I suppose that's
true of most things).

It wouldn't take much to get OpenAFS in pretty good shape on FreeBSD.  It
mostly has some locking and vnode ref count issues that shouldn't be too
hard to fix for someone who knows what they're doing.  I'd be happy to point
anyone in the right direction.
