I would chip in and say that I would prefer sticking to well-known proved filesystems like xfs/ext4 and let the application do the checksumming. I dont forsee fully production-ready checksumming filesystems readily available in the standard Linux distributions within a near future. And yes, I would for sure turn such functionality on if it were present. -- Jesper -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
