How many subvols/snapshots are possible? (limits?)

I can only speak from experience, a snapshot can take up to a minute to create later on, so minutely snapshots are out of the question then... I have snapshots every hour and I have no problems with that at all :) On Thu, May 9, 2013 at 12:10 PM, Martin m_bt...@ml1.co.uk wrote: Dear Devs, This
