  comment = {See also grimshaw:elfs. They hope to provide high bandwidth and
  low latency, reduce the cognitive burden on the programmer, and manage
  proliferation of data formats and architectural changes. Details of the plan
  to make an extensible OO interface to file system. Objects each have a
  separate thread of control, so they can do asynchronous activity like
  prefetching and caching in the background, and support multiple outstanding
  requests. The Mentat object system makes it easy for them to support
  pipelining of I/O with I/O and computation in the user program. Let the user
  choose type of consistency needed. See grimshaw:objects for more results.}
