We identified the following quality metrics for this algorithm:

Hmm. Can you also overwrite existing data in files when a volume is
full? I guess applications expect that to work..

That does seem to work pretty well, for example, repeated dd of
a size greater than the volume works. But I am not sure that
applications really expect that to work. I do not know of any
application like that myself.
