A possible fix for 'overlapped extent allocation' errors
I agree about the problems of filing the hd, and while it could be because of the swap file(s) I think it's more likely that the system will go nuts trying to find unfragmented space (or actually give up) and fragmentation on the most recent files will go through the roof.

True. But usually, the system fails to find space because the HD is full, and I think that one of the main causes of accidental fill-up is a runaway swap. If you keep 85% free, you should have no problem. I have been up to 95% on an archive partition (large files only) without problems either.

Perhaps. I'm seeing lot's of references to bunches of OSes - linux, BSD, HPAUX... I'm seeing references to hfs modifications.... |
