Hi, we are running a pretty intesive Backup solution which stores the 
contents of the backup in 256KB files on NFS. 
We are often loosing our NFS mounts, and suspect more troubles with NFS.

I was wondering:
a) Would you use ggate instead of NFS
b) How good this ggatec & ggated is running in production
c) What tests you would recommend 

Any pointers are welcome!
