CollabNet told me this would not work, because commits may have GET
requests in the midst of their transaction, and they must access the
same disk. With NFS if a GET that was part of a commit was redirected
to a second server whose NFS was cached and not seeing the latest
changes, it could cause problems.

I might be misunderstanding the details, but in any event they said
the idea above would work.
