since toasters said it was harmless, just to find out what kind of fragmentation our normal activity creates, i ran wafl scan measure_layout on our busiest filer.
the volume is only about 3-4 months young, but it does get pretty full on a regular basis. here's the output that appeared in my messages file:
Tue Mar 7 15:16:36 PST [wafl.scan.start:info]: Starting WAFL layout measurement on volume vol1. Tue Mar 7 16:04:06 PST [wafl.scan.layout.advise:info]: WAFL layout ratio for volume vol1 is 1.26. A ratio of 1 is optimal. Based on your free space, 6.53 is expected.
i haven't read up on this at all yet...would someone like to interpret this for us wafl scan newbies?
