SQLite is still unstable with 2.0.1. Bookmarks in firefox still don't work

First access immediately after mounting still fails, too.
FYI, I haven't seen the first-access-on-mounting problem since one of the
earlier 2.0.0RCs. I don't need to first "ls" my filesystems, they just
work from the start.
I hope to try a GlusterFS as my home directory soon and will be very
interested to see if I hit any trouble with FireFox bookmarks.
Problems I see in 2.0.1:
1) dht warns that the subvolumes are 100% full, even if they're empty. It
seems to work fine, anyway.
2) File writes to a kernel-NFS-reexported GlusterFS are marked dirty by
replicate, such that self-heal is triggered when stat'ing the directory.
The unfs3 user-mode NFS server does not trigger this issue, nor do non-NFS
writes.
3) replicate self-heal fails to preserve mtime.
4) GlusterFS seems to have trouble creating or renaming files that match
the pattern '..*.*.*'; this is noticed when rsyncing directories
containing dot-files.
Thanks,
Brent
