I did not give a number because it depends on the size of the xattrs, and I imagine the bnode size as well, though I only tested it with the default mkfs options. Maybe I should have shared the script I used instead: touch test.file i=1 while [ $i -le 250 ]; do setfattr -n user.$i test.file ((++i)) done rm test.file Of course, if you set a value to the xattrs you will need fewer. > Thanks a lot for the work!
