Subject: ext4 online defrag status?
Date: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 20:33:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CE97427.1090700@wpkg.org> (raw)
I was wondering what is the status of online defragment for ext4?
Generally, fragmentation isn't a big problem with every day usage, but
can bite when virtual machine (i.e. KVM) disk images are files.
For example:
vm-111-disk-1.raw: 28054 extents found, perfection would be 138 extents
There have been some ext4 defrag patches posted in 2008 and 2009 - what
is the state of this now in late 2010?
