Re-capturing space

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,
I'm looking at NILFS as a possible alternative to BTRFS for our move
off of ZFS. Looking at the description of how NILFS works, it seems
like it's one big log. New records go on the front. My question is how
does space eventually get recaptured when you delete files? Does the
log get rewritten/compacted regularly?
