IBM has always recommended that the workspace should be local to your
client. The IFS is comparatively slow as a file server to begin, and
unless you have gigabit Ethernet, a few workstations can easily consume
a significant portion of your network bandwidth.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Using IFS for workspace
Is anyone using RDi and pointing the workspace to a location on the IFS
via a drive mapping? We have been doing this with WDSC for a few years
because we would get the workspace corrupted on occasion and when we use
the IFS they can backup up nightly and we can restore a workspace and
save some time. We just started using RDi 7.5 and are having problems
with developers who are using the IFS for workspace but not on those
using local C: drive for workspace. The RDi errors are not consistent
but do only happen with those using IFS workspaces.
