This patch will be extremely useful for users who are serving
Windows clients using Samba. It allow admins to turn off the
userspace case insensitivity we have to emulate and be a significant
speed increase.

I'd like to see the numbers... Simo tested an earlier version of this

Yes I'd like to see some numbers too. Simo, can you post details of your

Cheers
