Subject: [PATCH 04/12] NFS: Kill NFS_INO_NFS_INO_FLUSHING: it is a performance killer
Date: Tue, 14 Jun 2016 15:05:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1465931115-30784-4-git-send-email-trond.myklebust@primarydata.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1465931115-30784-3-git-send-email-trond.myklebust@primarydata.com>
