It only issues IO if changes have occured. It isn't writing to disk every second unless changes need to get to disk anyway. (There was a bug where it _did_ write the metadata superblock every second even when it wasn't needed.. since fixed with this commit: http://git.kernel.org/linus/4d1662a30 ) -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
