Yes, partition alignment to the 4k drive block is critical, but that is not an direct IO issue, it is mkfs.btrfs and just as important for cache IO. And in any case, many people will use 512 byte block drives for many years to come. The switch to 4k will be gradual. jim -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
