  • How does the filesystem perform in your bechmarks. What are it's strengths/weaknesses? I'll take that with numbers & charts please .)
  • How does it solve the wandering tree problem? With Object-IDs?
  • How is cleanup performed? On-demand? What policies are in place? How does this affect performance? What about defragmentation? Are segments used?
  • How is allocation done? I'm interested in the policies. How does that affect locality?
  • How are transactions supported?
  • Are there any special provisions in place for flash media?
  • Is there a single B+ tree on the disk? One per table?
  • How are snapshots recorded? Is old metadata kept separate? Or is everything in a single big structure?
  • What are the future plans for the FS, except the obvious support for some missing NTFS-features.
  • Where are the weaknesses compared to NTFS?
  • How are explicit flushes (user requested) handled?
  • How will you handle future changes? Any provisions for on-disk layout changes?
