You can get a *huge* amount of information (prob
I set the C (NOCOW) and z (Not_Compressed) flags on a folder but the extent
counts of files contained there keep increasing.
Said files are large and frequently modified but not changing in size. This
does not happen when the filesystem is mounted with nodatacow.
