Same observation applies to your previous test > case as well. Given how many people get such a basic operation "wrong", we need a helper function for efficiently creating lots of empty files in a filesystem. Note that we already have _populate_fs(), but it's not very efficient when it comes to empty files, nor does it use concurrency. It seems to me that fixing this function and then using it everywhere would be the best approach. Perhaps even doing something like making fs_mark use deep directory structures, and just calling it instead to populate the filesystem?
