Hi,
I saw there are many PRs about softdep still open.
Here's perhaps another one - can someone confirm this?
On an ancient 80386-DX, I experiences crashes (system locks up) when
partitions mounted softdep during large file operations (installing via
bpm). Without softdep, things go fine.
Case is reproducable.
I assume it's the slow CPU as this system has 20 MB RAM. I successfully
run large file operations on 16 MB systems - with CPUs > 200 MHz.
Worth another PR?
