: From: "Daniel C. Sobral" <dcs@newsguy.com> : Default for FreeBSD is async [meta]data and sync data. Sync and Async : modes go full sync/async for both metadata and data... : > Just a btw, you seem to be able to set sync and async on a filesystem : > at the same time. What gives? : Beats me. Logically, then, -o sync,async means asynchronous data, synchronous metadata. Seems very clean and orthogonal to me. The way things ought to be. In practice I doubt the implementation is as described. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
