When you delete data, only the nilfs_cleanerd can reclaim the space, which is why you set up a protection_period, deleted data will never be overwritten unless reclaimed by the cleanerd. Here is a program I made to represent the disk in a graphical form, you'll see the cleanerd in action: http://ticpu.net:8080/~jerome/lssu-gtk.py
You need python-2.4+ with pygtk and nilfs-utils to run the program. _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://www.nilfs.org/mailman/listinfo/users
