Hello,

I would like to test 6.2-STABLE's ability to handle UFS2, quotas, and
snapshots.  In particular, I would like to make sure the deadlock
issue is resolved,
(http://people.freebsd.org/~kib/quotagiant/quotas-20060428-1252.patch)

In addition, it appears that compiling support for quotas in the
kernel will force the Giant lock on UFS and I want to make sure I
won't have a performance regression on the filesystem.

Can anyone recommend a testing regime?  I have a -STABLE production
machine in mind that needs quotas enabled, is running
sysutils/freebsd-snapshot, and has several large filesystems (100GB+).
 I'm not sure I want to "test" on this machine, however.

Thanks for your help.
