Hi Marcin

Based on the reading I've done around ACFS, I get the impression POSIX locking 
shouldn't be an issue for Oracle data files. Oracle say you get async and 
direct I/O on ACFS with fileystem_io_options = SETALL and claim comparable 
performance to raw devices. I've not come across any discussions of what 
happens with non-oracle database files and buffered I/O regarding locks though. 
Hopefully I'll get a chance to put all this to the test at some point…

Thanks
