Hi all, I have recently started working on S3QL again and am excited to announce a pre-release of S3QL 5.0!
There's been a large number of internal cleanups, but the most important change is that: S3QL (finally!) no longer limits the compressed metadata size to 5 GB because it no longer maintains entire filesystem metadata in a single storage object. Instead, the database file is distributed across multiple backend objects with a block size configured at mkfs time. This means that S3QL also no longer needs to upload the entire metadata object on unmount; and there is no longer a size limit on the metadata. It would be great if people could give this version a spin, but note that there may still be bugs. The pre-release is available for download from https://github.com/s3ql/s3ql/releases/tag/release-5.0.0-pre1 Best, -Nikolaus -- GPG Fingerprint: ED31 791B 2C5C 1613 AF38 8B8A D113 FCAC 3C4E 599F -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "s3ql" group.
