I don't have any filesystems that are _only_ used for Cyrus, as such there is a good chance of filesystem images existing somewhere on the filesystem. I realize it's not a deal killer for everyone, but for me it's enough to keep me elsewhere (Hans Reisers benchmark cheating early on made me very skeptical of it and I moved to XFS instead) David Lang ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
