Because the latest patchset still have the 'old' date of 24 October: gjournal_20061024.patch 24-Oct-2006 15:17 185k Maybe you have newer patches somewhere else, could you provide a link if so? I'm currently working on an extensive review of most geom classes and will incorporate the results into a big article with many benchmarks and comparisons. It would be nice if gjournal could be included in this article. Also, i would like to test your ZFS/RAID-Z patchset and compare it to graid5. My two test fileservers do not have any valuable information and have 8*250GB SATA drives, so this makes it excellent for testing. Also i've created many benchmark / battle testing scripts which might show advantages and disadvantages of several implementations. It also reveiled bugs in the current VFS-implementation, which caused geom stalls/crashes in both 6-STABLE and 7-CURRENT, otherwise not reveiled with normal load/usage. If you're interested, drop me a line and i can start testing in a few days! If you like, i can also arrange SSH access for you to the box. Greetings, Veronica
