>Description:
Greetings. I have successfully used mount -o snapshot on volumes
less than 30Gb, but when I use it on my 150GB volume, the command hangs
and slowly every other process hangs as well. This behavior is 
observed on both a RC2 system and on a 5.0-RELEASE system.

	
>How-To-Repeat:
	

Install FreeBSD 5.0 on a system with a 200GB disk.
mkdir /usr/snapshots
mount -u -o snapshot /usr/snapshots/snap1 /usr

System slowly hangs; the mount command doesn't come back, even after
crunching for more than 2 days.

Fix the code?
