All of these are great reports and are what I expected. Thanks.

I had heard of someone working on a fossil derivative with libventi, I
didn't know it was you. Is the code public yet? I'd give it a stress
testing of my own eventually if given the chance.
I don't think I will ever stress things as much as some of you all
though -- I just use this for personal use (I'll just say that I've got
2 soekris boards and they are plenty for what I do -- I guess I'm just
patient).
Charles, I'm glad you pointed out your woes with the SSD, I had
considered purchasing an SSD for my cpu/fs but I didn't want to gamble
with such a costly device. Now I have every reason to avoid it (I've
seen similar testimonies). I figured flash memory was perfect for venti
-- but not without some stability. Plus, there are 1TB 2.5" consumer
drives out for just north of $100! What a world we live in. By the
time I fill that, there will be 2TB 2.5" drives...
Cheers,
Jack
