Mathieu et, all , Fixes seemed to have fixed the corruption issue thus far. Re-emerging 1000+ packages on Gentoo (tons of small reads/writes on SSD) with no problems yet. Also, just downloaded the Linux-next patch from this morning (https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/next/patch-v3.12-rc1-next-20130923.xz) and applied on top of your Reiser4-for-3.12-rc1 branch recompiled re-installed NVidia (thanks for fixing that btw!) and resuming compiling as we speak. Going strong still and fast. Not sure if it makes much difference but I use no compression just mkfs.reiser4 -o formatting=smart on SSD drives. Are there any special options I should be using on SSD arrays? Addressing the compression angle, does formatting an array with one of the compression options (lzo perhaps?) have significant overhead? Storage space is not a concern however if there is very little overhead I'd like to backup my data and do some benchmarking. Please advise at your convenience.
