[Zope] ExternalFile and ZEO

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

Or consider Intermezzo or similar fs if you are using Linux.  A
network-replicated distributed filesytem mechanism that replicates copies of
files to each cluster node would likely work for these purposes, without the
need to write any code to glue/map it together (and it would eliminate the
NFS latency and single-point-of-failure - which could, in theory, freeze up
your Zope instance by tying up each thread if your NFS server goes down).
