(I don't care for the Phoronix title or summary)

I really enjoyed your presentation Dave.  It's also nice to finally put
a face and voice to a name.
Yes, I enjoyed it as well, although I mainly read the LWN summary about it 
without watching it completely yet.

Since then I wonder whether it might be good to replace the Ext4 for /home 
on the Intel SSD 320 in my ThinkPad T520 with Intel i5 Dualcore (+ HT) by 
XFS again. I didn´t use XFS initially specifically due to the lower 
metadata performance and due to that to my knowledge only Ext4 implements 
the rename-case workaround for delayed allocation.

I will put various informations and a link to the lwn.net article 
regarding his presentation [1] - which I prefer over the Phoronix article 
the headline of the later appears lurid to me, well that appears to be 
Michael´s style, maybe he thinks he attracts more visitors this way - into 
my Linux performance analysis & tuning training.
