Package: general Severity: normal The /etc/fstab file is created using by default ext4 with just the errors=remount-ro option. However, the Debian FAQ recommends the nodelalloc mount option to avoid performance degradation and preserve data safety:
https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg/FAQ#Q:_Why_is_dpkg_so_slow_when_using_new_filesystems_such_as_btrfs_or_ext4.3F For ext4, use instead the "nodelalloc" mount option, which should fix both the performance degradation and the data safety issues, and not for just dpkg, but for any application in the system. So this option should be used by default for btrfs and ext4. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
