It happens sometimes under load, haven't investigated yet what exactly is happening, but you can ignore it for now, it's harmless, it just means journal switch will be done a bit later. BTW. 8GB for journals is much. You should not need more than 2GB probably. Of course it will work with 8GB just fine. -- Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheel.pl [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer Am I Evil? Yes, I Am!
