Could you please modify the test to avoid this booby trap? Or > actually, let me do it myself... The same concern, with the same root cause (truncation at a hundred-megabyte offset being transformed into a hundred-megabyte write, and then repeated 10000 times), exists for generic/014. At this point, I have a question: should this be mitigated at the individual test level, or should the _require_sparse_files check be modified? -- Alexander E. Patrakov
