From 5a5deec05fe0908528e4115c216b4d65f15bfb82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jaegeuk Kim Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2014 14:17:21 +0900 Subject: f2fs: change reclaim rate in percentage It is more reasonable to determine the reclaiming rate of prefree segments according to the volume size, which is set to 5% by default. For example, if the volume is 128GB, the prefree segments are reclaimed when the number reaches to 6.4GB.
