I saw a few posts the other day about patches that actually implement
the on-the-fly compression in ext2 filesystems.

I was wondering if anyone has actually used these patches and how
secure (ie, reliable) they may be.

I plan to test them out on a syquest I have, but I was interested in
other peoples observations. If I get a good enough sample of people's
experiences, I'll summerize them here ....

Shin!
