Very interesting, thanks.  This looks like it will do what I'm after.
If I understand correctly this is already built-in, at least in 3.0 and
later, and to turn it on I just have to 'tunefs -n enable' each
filesystem?

Is anybody here running this?  Could I get some testimonials before
I put our whole lab on soft updates?  :-)
