Apparently mkfs.btrfs does set it by default now, so perhaps your filesystem predates the change, or suse's btrfs-progs is too old. mkfs.btrfs /dev/whatever followed by mounting with no options should print "btrfs: disk space caching is enabled" to dmesg if your mkfs is new enough, if you wish to test. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
