Summary stats like this can sometimes be misleading. Or to put it another way, if half your files are < 100M and contiguous, and the other half are > 100M and all of those have 2 50M extents each, I think e2fsck would say "50.0% non-contiguous" - but this isn't really indicative of a problem. If you can demonstrate that simply copying a large file (or files) from cifs leads to bad fragmentation of that file (or files), then we probably have something to work on. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug.
