I have not looked at Lustre, as I have heard many negative things about it 
(including Oracle ownership). The only business using Lustre where I know 
the admins has had a lot of trouble with it. No redundancy.

Fhgfs looks interesting, and I am planning on looking at it, but have
not yet done so.

MooseFS and GlusterFS have both been evaluated, and were too slow. In the
case of GlusterFS, waaaay too slow.
