We have two 34G ccd arrays, so even bumping down one percent is kind of a waste of space. Since newfs gives a buffer zone for safety (you can fill the fs to 105% or so), I want to keep usage up above the warning zone. So, is there any way, short of newfs-ing the arrays again, to keep the kernel from complaining about the filesystem being "full" when there's really a few gigabytes left? Is there any way to force optimization to "time" instead of "space" at these usage levels?
