No.  I experienced a lot of troubles with it, so I don't
want to use it until somebody says it's safe.

When I waked up, entire RAID5 file system was locked up
although only several directories were locked up last night.
Reboot process also locked up, so I need to restart from
monitor.  Now, I'm writing paryty of RAID5.  After that, I
need fsck.  It takes forever.
