Dear Jonathan,
thank you for reporting the problem,
we did no saw such behaviour before.
In fact ploop grow should call resize2fs and probably it ignores reserved ratio
setting.
You can try to run it under strace and look at details, ploop sources are
public available too.
Igor (in cc:) is going to check this behaviour, I hope he will clarify the
situation soon.
Thank you,
Vasily Averin
