Hi Ducan, could you elaborate this sentence ? From my understanding inode_cache is *needed* on 32bit system in order to avoid inode number overflow. Why are you saying that it is not recommended ? Even if there are bugs, these have to be corrected. A bugs cannot be a reason to remove a needed option. Inode exhaustion is worse than a slowness... Otherwise BTRFS would be not suitable to a 32 bit system... But please tell me your opinion because may be I misunderstood something...
