I mean, no sane > person needs 32GB of journal The docs don't warn against needing that large of a journal, yes. One of the things which never got finished (although it was in the original design of the jbd layer) was the ability to share the journal across multiple filesystems. This would mean that it might more sense to have a single large journal. Probably not 32GB in size, though. Did you find some documentation that actually recommend that large of an external journal? - Ted _______________________________________________ Ext3-users mailing list Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
