Hello, I deleted a 84GB file from a nilfs partition and it blocked write access to the filesystem for about 4 minutes, on decent harddrive (SCSI 15k RPM, 147GB) I believe the file was somewhat fragmented due to fragmentation of free space on the filesystem, even though it was created in one pass (a harddrive image). Unfortunately I don't have checkpoints with the file anymore :( Regards, -- dexen deVries ``One can't proceed from the informal to the formal by formal means.'' -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nilfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
