I thought it would make sense to create a message for each "put" operation and then have the a client pick up the message along with the file and store the file on its disks. This way if you wanted a file to be stored twice, you could just create two messages, and if you wanted to get a file, you would put one "get" message and the first server that actually has the file could respond with its contents. Do you think this would be a smart way to implement a distributed and reliable file sytem (in terms of performance with JavaSaces) or would I be better of with a more traditional approach?
