https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107301 --- Comment #17 from Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> --- Ultimately it is Ted's call but your argument is like (randomly taken out of top of my head): "Proper locking to protect from hole punching costs us some performance and our workload doesn't use hole punching so let's create mount option to disable the locking". Sure it can be done and it will benefit your workload but how much you gain? And how many users need this? This has to be weighted against the cost of the new mount option in terms of testing and usability (and code complexity but that is fairly small in this case so I'm not that concerned). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
