This could be something like a mirrored RAID, but over the network.  
Do a network mount of the /home/bob partition, then, as you work with  
it, files are copied to a local drive and things start to become  
faster. Similar to how you'd recover from a drive failure in a two  
disk RAID.

Such a network-RAID would be a great solution for people partly  
working on a laptop elsewhere and partly working on the own desktop  
as well, but I couldn't find a piece of software supporting such a  
strategy so far.
