I'm going to blame softdep:
A long time ago when modifying large numbers of files
on a machine with limited memory suddenly:
the system became completely unresponsive,
the disk light was on solid

That went on for minutes.

Hi,
(sorry for the misdirected subscribe mail this morning - I've recognised the
error soon after sending, but could not cancel the message)
I found a possible issue with the SHA256 file for the Loongson architecture for
OpenBSD 7.4
That file contains the names and hashes of (some) 7.3
Not quite sure how much has been discussed publically, but we don't
currently have the manpower to handle lots of complicated parts,
and it seems that softdep, in its current state, needs the hand of
Kirk McKusick to work.
So the current strategy has been to make the moving parts simpler
Thanks! End of discussion ;-)
(Except for a potential update of the man page.)

Make the softdep mount(8) option a no-op. Softdep was a
significant impediment to improving the vfs layer.

I have just noticed that mount(8) has a softdep option for FFS file systems.
And I saw this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_updates
where OpenBSD is mentioned.
However the default /etc/fstab does not make use of it.

Hi misc,
In the past, I used to mount a secondary drive into /mnt/, the keydisk
protected by a password.
Now I use FDE with a keydisk, but would like to protect the bootable
system with a keydisk + passphase (something you have + something you know).
Any chance doing this directly using

Hallo openbsd-mailinglist,
1) my name is Luciano, I am a long time linux user.
