iv) as Windows NT currently only uses the non-data forks for
metadata, store the data fork in the page cache as normal, and
read the metadata forks directly. This isn't entirely simple as
a lot of the metadata structures can be bigger than a single
block, but it should be do-able, right? I guess this is the
least nasty option, but I'd like comments..
At the risk of spawning the whole to-file-fork-or-not-to-file-fork flame
war.... I agree, of the four choices, this is the one which I think
makes the most sense.
