I'll let it run once a week. The backup incrementals do not read every file, so this might detect corruption earlier. Would it make any sense to run xfs_check periodicially on a mounted fs? xfs_check man page says: 'The filesystem should normally be unmounted or read-only during the execution of xfs_check. Otherwise, spurious problems are reported.' I guess you would have mentioned it...
