Hi Since a few weeks i'm experiencing an annoying 'thing' where files are often too big in `du` and directory totals are to high in `ls -l`. I appears that files, which are in the process of beeing copied/downloaded/whatever, grow in large chunks ahead of time, while the actual file-content is beeing copied into the files. And then it appears that the last chunk isn't shrunk after the process is finished. Neither xfs_bmap (Version 3.1.5) nor filefrag show anything beyond the extent that compromises the actual file-content. I've noticed this at least with: - "git gc" - cp -a - rsync - downloads with firefox (technically Iceweasel) Kernel is currently 2.6.38.5, Distribution is an up-to-date Debian-SID. mount is with default-parameters, except "noatime". Any idea how to debug this, or is this a known bug and waiting a few days for 2.6.39 should fix this? Bis denn -- Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
