Hey Qu, et all.

Is the issue behind this still being looked at?

There used to be some patches out there, but I think they were never
merged.

Still having quite massively (well only where I use Prometheus) the
problem that on some filesystems where the application does that pre-
allocation, a lot of space is wasted.

IIRC your patches tried to put that in defrag, but the downside with
that is IMO that you have to defrag - and didn't that break up
refcopied extents?

Thanks,
Chris.
