Not quite as pronounced as in my > calculations, then, but still a significant enough difference. There is also a number of cases which justify disabling DUP for metadata, e.g. - underlying block device is an internally deduplicating SSD (i.e. possibly most of them) - or the block device is a RAID incorporating redundancy - or simply one wants increase performance at the cost of some reliability With non-DUP metadata your calculations showing inlining being more efficient remain correct. -- With respect, Roman ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Stallman had a printer, with code he could not see.
