Interesting.  I not only haven't ever had any data loss attributable to
XFS (though I have had some downtime), I nearly never have *any problems
at all with the filesystems*.  Though, admittedly, when I do, they're big.
:-)

That said, the ability to get the lead developer on the line on IRC does
take some of the sting out of that.  And Dave's a really nice guy, to
boot.

For *me*, the mistake I won't ever make again is LVM.

Now, back on topic...
