[PATCH v2 05/17] dm exception store: do not read metadata if going to handover exceptions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx>

This saves memory (without the patch, the exception store would consume twice
more memory while doing handover).
