Thanks. I was ~3 months behind on LWN for awhile but am down to 4 weeks |
9 |
(including the 8th's weekly) behind now, but that does mean I hadn't seen |
10 |
that article yet. I just read it. =:^) |

Looks like they're adding metadata checksumming too, tho not data, and |
13 |
not until 3.4-ish. |

I like, but as I think I mentioned, I hope to finally be switching to |
16 |
btrfs with 3.3 or 3.4, after the bigger metadata blocks hit (an earlier |
17 |
LWN said 3.3-ish). I'll be keeping the backup copies (both hot and cold) |
18 |
on reiserfs for awhile, tho. I'm not insane enough to trust /everything/ |
19 |
to the still-no-fsck-only-recovery-tool btrfs just yet. |
