great info! Your experiences with XFS, and several papers written

My pleasure! (Heck, I'm just glad to contribute in
some way...)
The majority of deleted recordings were 2.7GB
(one-hour dramas). I did delete a football game that
had wound up somewhere in the 4-5GB range, and right
now I've got a 5.4GB figure skating show waiting for
my wife to see it before I can nuke it.
I was, however, seeing my freezes with half-hour
programs (~1.2-1-4GB) as well as longer ones.
partition the next time I build (or re-build) a system.
Thanks, Steve.
