Always a good thing to learn more about filesystems. One day, parrot
will have its own filesystem just like smalltalk. Bwahaha!

PLUG Advanced Topics Meeting
Date: July 16th 2007
Time: 7pm
Location: Jax Bar
826 SW 2nd Avenue Portland, Oregon
Speaker: Val Henson
Topic: Chunkfs: Repair-driven file system design
Most file systems are designed without thought for what happens when
the file system inevitably becomes corrupted and needs repair.
Chunkfs is an example of repair-driven file system design: a file
system designed from the ground up to be swiftly and efficiently
repairable. A chunkfs file system is divided into multiple chunkfs of
about 1GB in size which can be checked and repaired with only limited,
minor reference to metadata in other chunkfs.
