Problem is for example with git. Without castfs the file in cache
directory (git-1.6.5.3-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2) is around 4 MB, with
castfs it is 37 MB.
It is a problem with links.


Without castfs:
$ ls -li /usr/libexec/git-core/git-add
2039835 -rwxr-xr-x *96* root root 1005884 Nov 30 04:11
/usr/libexec/git-core/git-add

With castfs:
$ ls -li /usr/libexec/git-core/git-add
225731 -rwxr-xr-x *1* root root 1005884 Nov 30 04:01
/usr/libexec/git-core/git-add
