#9763: Deleting 62k files spams the syslog -------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: humdinger | Owner: nobody Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: - General | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All -------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by humdinger): I'm afraid I have accidentally somehow removed the corruption...[[BR]] As seen from the checkfs output above, the corruption was rported to be in the folder "in" (which is a mail folder). In order to narrow in the affected files, I created three folders on the same partition - "A1", "A2", A3" - and moved into each 1/4 of the mails from "in". I then renamed "in" to "A4".[[BR]] A new run of checkfs showed the misbehaving inode in folder "A4". I proceeded to create new folders - "A4B1", "A4B2", A4B3" - moved again 1/4 of the mails of "A4" into those, and renamed "A4" to "A4B4".[[BR]] Another run of checkbfs now shows no errors at all(!). What's going on? Can the number of files in a folder have an influence? The "A4" folder had around 10.000 files in it. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/9763#comment:3> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
