What is the filesystem overhead percentage supposed to be for FC4
systems? I have 2 200GB disks attached to the system and I let FC4 do
its thing and claim all of the space for itself. When I do a df(1) I
see that only 279 x 1024^3 bytes are available after overhead. That
comes out to only 71% of the original disk space. Over 128GB is being
lost. Is there really supposed to be that much overhead used?
In contrast, on a BSD system under I see only about 5% overhead when
looking at df(1). Thats more in line with what I'd expect for the
space taken by inodes.
