=>Agreed.  I have never seen anything above 3%, on a disk that has been
=>hammered for months.  I would only start to worry if disk usage were above,
=>say, 80% AND I saw high fragmentation (above 5-6%).  The work involved in
=>taking a copy of the FS and rebuuilding disk setups (or manually copying and
=>deleting files :o\  ) is too much to contemplate!

=>I didn't know about tunefs, though, so thanks for that gem!

Have I missed this one about tunefs? Well no. But I am wondering if
enabling/disabling of soft updates can be a factor to the % increase.
I have it enabled!
