Test results:

File re-appeared messages on SuSE Linux 9.1 x86 (Kernel 2.6.5 patched by
SuSE) on these file systems (all local; fast machine, Athlon XP 2500+):

tmpfs
xfs
ext3
reiserfs

File re-appeared messages on Solaris 9 x86 (fast machine):

swap (/tmp)
ufs logging (/var/tmp)
nfs (from above Linux server)
nfs (from below FreeBSD server)

File re-appeared messages on FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE-p3 x86 (slow machine,
K6-2/300):

mfs (/tmp)
nfs (from above Linux server)
nfs (from above Solaris server)
ufs softupdates (/var/tmp)

So I'd think I have nothing that "works" for your application profile
unfortunately.
