This does not make sense. readdir() does not care about large discs. It might care about the file number in a directory. And while there are some limitations with readdir for virtual filesystems (like NFS) there should be no issue with local filesystem where kernel is maintaining the internal handle with proper means. So do you have your cache on NFS with thousands of files in a single directory? > Sometimes I see a cron job warning: > /etc/cron.daily/apt-cacher-ng: > Aborted > run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/apt-cacher-ng exited with return code 134 > > Change is trivial, just add "future=+lfs" to DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS: This does not make sense. That would only inject a couple of runtime influencing defines. apt-cacher-ng has been adding those defines since the early days of its creation. And how would that affect readdir related syscalls?
