Hi,

I've asked this before on -questions and didn't get a reply.
Sorry for repeating it on this list, but I don't think this is
a stupid question (if it is, then someone _please_ let me
know).

Does it make sense to use soft-update in conjunction with INN
and the news spool on CNFS?  Is it good, or does it make things
worse, or does it not matter at all?

I _think_ that it doesn't matter, because the CNFS involves no
meta data updates, but I'm really not sure.  Maybe just mount
it async instead?
And how about INN's overview stuff?  History and active files?

Any hints are greately appreciated!

Regards
   Oliver

PS:  In case it matters:  the news server will receive a non-
binary feed, i.e. it will be only moderately busy.
