Personal reminder - do not use xfs
Submitted by specialj on Sat, 2008-01-05 21:58.
After trying my best to run xfs_repair on a large xfs partition (and failing) I realized that the decision to use xfs was a mistake. In no way should anyone use xfs unless: 1) they are sure there will be no compatibility issues, 2) they use it on a 64-bit system, 3) they use it on a system with lots of RAM, 4) they don't use it on a large partition, 5) they are not using it with block device encryption. Believe me, I've tried with each of these issues individually and in combination and have concluded that it was not worth the extra effort.
