BTW: Are ext3 filesystem sizes greater than 8T now officially

I think so, but I don't know how much 16TB testing developers and
distros are doing - perhaps the linux-ext4 denizens can tell us?

IBM has done some testing (dbench, fsstress, fsx, tiobench, iozone etc)
on 10TB ext3, I think RedHat and BULL have done similar test on >8TB
ext3 too.

Is there not a problem of backward-compatibility with old kernels?
Doesn't we need to handle a new INCOMPAT flag in e2fsprogs and kernel
before allowing ext3 filesystems greater than 8T?
