Does anybody know if something similar to this is available for modern
FreeBSD/Unix?  Preferably something in Userland vs. Kernel.

Also, my requirements are significantly more relaxed than a true DSM model
(and much more lightweight is preferred)..  I really just need synchronized
views of data on a "reasonable" effort basis (i.e.  it's OK if one
client/peer sees slightly older data.  Sequence is important though).

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks,

Tim
