I burnt my fingers on the heat-sink of the nforce4
north/southbridge/mcp-chip and decided it was too hot ;-)

Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on
/dev/da0.eli 10657598008 5464985376 4340004792 56% 139261 335877569 0% /mnt
Not very many inodes used.
But I rejoiced too early, just as I'm writing this e-mail I started a
python-script and my files were gone again partialy:
radium# cd /mnt/temporary/
radium# cfv *
[output deleted]
radium# ls -1 | wc -l
311
radium# cd
radium# umount /mnt
radium# mount /dev/da0.eli /mnt
radium# cd /mnt/temporary/
radium# ls -1 | wc -l
3887
AARGH!
And this seems to be rather random behaviour...
