The best tool I've seen so far originally came from Vladimir and was modified for a study on fragmentation of reiserfs and ext2, Jeff found the link somewhere in his archives: http://www.informatik.uni-frankfurt.de/~loizides/reiserfs/index.html There is also a filesystem aging tools there that I haven't played with yet. -chris
