btrfsck is using far too much memory ! I tryed a btrfsck on my /dev/md127 (13T) and had to kill it because btrfsck used 7.8 Gigs of ram ( machine have 8 Gigs of ram, plus four Gigs on swap when I killed it)
btrfsck should not try to bring "in memory" the whole metadata, etc. my 2 cents, (will reformat /dev/md127 tomorrow, actually saving what can be saved on the old readonly fs) Xtian. -- 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
