1) how safe, in your experience, is the BFS for storing large amounts of files?
Any critical issues pertaining to potential data loss?
Despite that there are some bugs left that are known to cause corruption
(which might not even be in BFS itself, but definitely somewhere in
Haiku), it's actually pretty stable in daily use. As the main developer
of BFS, I at least trust it with all data I have (several TB), and I
haven't had any corruption outside of SVN yet.
It's not that I would recommend it at this point for trusting your life
on it, but as long as you'll have a backup ready, there should be
nothing to worry about.
Bye,
Axel.
