Any particular reason for that? I'm asking simply because ramfs appears to be quite broken on my system. In fact, I can't make it work at all.

That, actually, seems to work fine. Although I'm about to give it more stress testing. Here's a question thought: by default 9pserve only listens on an AF_UNIX socket what would be the best way to connect it to the AF_INET one? Thanks, Roman.
