:Is cat /dev/random > /mnt/hammer/test still gonna trash the file system when 
:it runs out of space or have you fixed it already?

    For testing, right now, don't fill it up.  It will blow up.

    The filesystem full handling is the last bit I have to work on.  It
    basicall comes down to estimating the resources required by cached
    elements in order to guarantee that a sync will always succeed without
    running out of space.
