1) I understand, but unless people raise this issue publicly maybe they won't ever change ;-) 2) I can dump it on my home drive just like i could dump it on S3

1) I understand, but unless people raise this issue publicly maybe they won't ever change ;-) 2) I can dump it on my home drive just like i could dump it on S3, but I do a lot of parsing on the files and copying them back and forth when needed is a headache I'd rather avoid. And then there is my front-end server that caches large portions of the website dynamically which I can't move to my home drive
