I turned off softdep.
My backups aren't super-current so I don't see restoring from backup as
a good idea.
My point was, OpenBSD is behind some other OS's (most?) in the
filesystem department. I know, "patches welcome" :) ......

I eventually got fsck to mark the /home filesystem clean but it found
>4000 lost files that it moved to lost&found. I am not so experienced
with this, running "file" on a few of them shows that they may be
intact files but they have numeric names now.
I've really been enjoying OpenBSD but I think it could really use a
journaled filesystem. I believe I have the correct options in fstab
for the best results:
1f08fbc2b303f0ef.k /home ffs rw,softdep,noatime,nodev,nosuid 1 2
I was just thinking how much I was enjoying OpenBSD compared to some
others when this happened.
OpenZFS? License issues? Hammer? Anything?
