| 10 hours ago | comment | added | Marcus Müller | hm, if I'm doing the math correctly, that file system created has a little more than 2% (1/45) of storage allocated to inodes. Which, at 46 TB overall size, is a lot in absolute terms, but: before you do anything fancy with your data, is saving less than 2% of space really worth it? | |
