BTW, are there any xfstests results times for dirent vs. non-dirent 
code?  For whatever reason, generic/068 is posting noticeably worse 
numbers for v4-dirent XFS than for both v4 XFS and v5-dirent CRC XFS.

I'm running the tests myself as well, but it will take a while to run 
them for v4 XFS, v4-dirent XFS, v4-dirent-512b-inode XFS, and 
v5-dirent-CRC XFS...which kinda speaks to Dave's point about supporting 
a matrix of filesystems, but I wasn't meaning it that way...

Thanks again!

Michael
