This looks like there is a patch of ours missing from the upstream e2fsprogs.
We have a patch that will restart e2fsck only a single time for inodes
beyond the high waterwark.  On a large filesystem like yours this would
have cut 30 minutes off the e2fsck time.  I'll submit that separately.

Sign overflow here...  Looks like we exceed 2.5GB of memory here.   Still,
not too bad considering this is a 80TB filesystem.

We fsck had a virtual size of around 10GB (5.4 resident in the 6GB of DRAM) when I checked... I wonder if it would have been significantly faster without the excessive swap use (i.e., on a box with more memory)?

Pass 5: Checking group summary information
Inode bitmap differences:  -(98404--98405)

Note that it got truncated in Pass 5 - just after writing out some values
that look like they sign wrapped?

-(103650--103655) -(103659--103660) -103663 -103665 -103667
-(103669--103670) -(103673--103676) -103679 -103684 -103687 -10

No, this is what gets printed when there are inodes (or blocks) marked
in the bitmap that are not in use.  It shouldn't be truncated however.
You said the node crashed at this point?

Cheers, Andreas

Yes - unfortunately, no logs or other indication of why it crashed and we did not have a serial console setup either so we don't have anything to go on.

I am going to push harder to get some large storage configurations that we can use for testing internally, so hopefully, we will have something to test on in a couple of months....
