Anything, I do mean anything, can be simulated using small test programs. Pointing at a big fancy machine with lots of storage and disk is a passive aggressive way to avoid the real issues, in that nobody is putting forth the effort to try and come up with an at least publishable test case that Christoph can use to help you guys. If coming up with a reproducable and publishable test case is the difference between this getting fixed and it not getting fixed, are you going to invest the time to do that? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
