Does the fact that we expect to have 32bit > workstation and/or server weigh into this decision any? I think the only limit is 16TB max file system, so off hand I'd say no. But this also applies to ext4. I just tested with 3.13.4-200.fc20.i686+PAE. XFS (sdc): file system too large to be mounted on this system. EXT4-fs (sdc): filesystem too large to mount safely on this system. The same 32-bit kernel mounts a 20TB Btrfs volume with no complaints, so I don't know its limit. http://paste.fedoraproject.org/80784/93470280/ XFS mounts with inode64 by default, same as x86_64. So that's good. Chris Murphy -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
