I am seriously considering mounting my filesystem async to get some performance
increase out of my news server, currently expires are taking WAY WAY too long
:(. Could someone explain what is the absolute worst scenario that can occur
when a filesytem is mounted async and something bad happens (e.g. power loss on
disks or server or both or whatever..)
Is the disk scrambled? Or are only a handful of files lost? Thanks much guys!
