Frank, let me ask some additional questions:

* What OS are you on?  (including distribution, release, etc)
* What is the underlying filesystem?  what features do you have enabled?  (
e.g., the output of dumpe2fs -h or equivalent on your system)

With that information, we might be able to help explain things more clearly
and completely.

Thanks,
Steven
