From c581afc8db4e9aaa8af2246bb72c1bf72825014d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josef Bacik Date: Thu, 6 Feb 2014 16:06:06 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: balance delayed inode updates While trying to reproduce a delayed ref problem I noticed the box kept falling over using all 80gb of my ram with btrfs_inode's and btrfs_delayed_node's. Turns out this is because we only throttle delayed inode updates in btrfs_dirty_inode, which doesn't actually get called that often, especially when all you are doing is creating a bunch of files. So balance delayed inode updates everytime we create a new inode. With this patch we no longer use up all of our ram with delayed inode updates.
