Following on from the discussion of a few days ago concerning building Haiku 
on GNU/Linux without xattr support, I decided to move to a Haiku-hosted build.  
So the first step is to copy the haiku installation onto a BFS volume.  In the 
command below, /Vault is a RO-mounted ext4 volume:

/Home/mounty> tar cf - -C /Vault/mounty/haiku-x86 . | tar xf -

which after running for about eight hours has hung and is sucking CPU.  In 
particular, the reading process is taking ~98%.  Is this interesting ?  It's a 
bit vague for a bug report and I'm not sure if it's an ext4 problem or a tar 
problem.
