Is there any specific reason why > you want to use the RT subvolume? I am streaming high-resolution images to be compressed through hardware and need to separate the data from the meta data for compression purposes. XFS gave that for free if I used a realtime subvolume. I originally started on kernel 2.6.27 (CentOS 5.5) which had no issues with the RT subvolume and direct writes. I was then moved to kernel 2.6.32 (SUSE 11) which does have the issue. I appreciate your willingness to help. Are there any alternatives or suggestions for splitting the data and meta data? Any direction you can give on where to start looking or what I could do to track down the exact cause of the bug? Thanks. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
