Note: the corruption Jim found and which I have confirmed are only
when doing large number of writes to a filesystem in degraded mode.
If you see something different, please let me know.  It would
definitely help tracking this down.


ah! that explains it then. I was indeed copying over data in
degraded mode.


The bug is elusive enough that it's difficult :-/

ouch. and RAID that can't be written to in degraded mode is
somewhat impractical for production use. ;-)
is there anything I can do to help? otherwise, I'll fall back to
RAID5 and prepare the box for production.



Unless you want to try to help hunt down the bug, not much.
