Status update coming. Did journalling of updates to interior btree nodes a few months ago to get rid of FUA writes and for other reasons and that turned out to be more work than expected; still debugging the new btree key cache code which is needed to fully fix recovery from unclean shutdown. Main blocker for merging is the dio cache coherency thing. That and working through all known bugs. There's an outstanding data corruption bug someone in the IRC channel is helping track down. Bleh. Debugging is endless.
