Yeah, I talked about 4k stacks earlier in this thread - 4k stacks on x86 can cause xfs to run into trouble with more "interesting" io stacks. (though there are non-trivial cases where ext3 can blow through 4k as well; see recent LKML threads on 4k stacks...) The testing above, though, was on x86_64 with a larger stack size. -Eric -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
