I was thinking of disabling atime on my rpool to cut down on SSD writes, are there any parts of the OS that will break without atime enabled? Seems like a FAQ but I couldn't find anything definitive.
Linux has a mode called relatime which is defined as: "relative atime only updates the atime if the previous atime is older than the mtime or ctime. Like noatime, but useful for applications like mutt that need to know when a file has been read since it was last modified." Would there be any interest in adding something similar to zfs like "atime=relative"? Thanks... ------------------------------------------- illumos-discuss Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/182180/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/182180/21175430-2e6923be Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21175430&id_secret=21175430-6a77cda4 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
