Honestly I think its good to have some of these features in specific filesystems at first. Sure, it is easy to tell if they help in the lab and during development, but why go through the pain of implementing them in generic form until they have been through a broader test? So the idea for the feature is fine with me, especially for something like readahead which we can support forever by turning it into a noop if there turns out to be a better idea. -chris -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
