That's why I'm still wrestling with btrfs. FYI, there are patches to extend ext4 to store xattr's in a separate inode. They were submitted by the Whamcloud (formerly Oracle, Sun, Clustrefs -- the Lustre folks). Unfortunately I haven't had the personal time and review bandwidth to go over the patches, and they haven't been rebased in a while. I'm not opposed to them; they just need some time and loving attention from folks with ext4 expertise to accelerate the process of getting the patches reviewed, and in mainline. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
