Or maybe something which is actually more relevant to filesystem behavior than "mp3 encoding" and "parallel bzip2 compression?" ;) The xfstests test suite is a good general fs regression test, and it's run all the time on btrfs, fwiw. Of course Josef and other filesystem developers run such tests as a matter of course. There seems to be some idea that fs developers are a wild-eyed bunch of hacks who are just itching to lose or corrupt your data. It's not true; filesystem developers are, for the most part, highly conservative with these things.

Indeed, that would be a lot more useful than random potshots and assertions on mailing lists ;) -Eric > JB > > -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
