Did YOU read the article? It doesn't say that the track is being constantly refreshed. In fact, on the Ski-Trac website it says this about the snowmaking:
A unique two-chamber "eco-system" solves problems associated with indoor snow-making, as well as allowing for daily top-ups with fresh powder snow.
And that's it. Nothing about being constantly refreshed, only about being able to make new snow, and the benefit that has for skiing in conditions where snow would not normally be available.
Did YOU bother to research your suppositions? You should before bitching about other people reading or not reading the article.
Tip for better NFS performance in FreeBSD

Understanding NFS

Just a tip... by default, FreeBSD uses conservative NFS mounting options. Note that these work well when trying to interoperate with other Unixes; everybody speaks the lowest common denominator. You can use mount options to augment NFS performance but reduce interoperability somewhat. These options aren't necessary when you're working with one or two clients, but as your NFS installation grows, you'll find them helpful. They may or may not work with other operating systems; it depends on what those OSs support.
