vnode reclaim in progress — NTFS

[leofiore]

• OSX Snow Leopard
• OSXFuse 2.3.4
• NTFS-3G 2010.10.2

I use osxfuse + ntfs-3g in order to acces an external usb drive. In particular circumstances, the system slow down until it hangs up with a kernel panic. It usually happens when there is an intense disk I/O activity.

the report provided after the reboot

Interval Since Last Panic Report:  436673 sec
Panics Since Last Report:          2

Can you reproduce the kernel panic reliably? If this is the case, could you provide some more details to what triggers the panic (test case). I need to recreate the situation in order to debug the kernel extension.

[bfleischer]

Without feedback any further investigation is impossible.

Supposedly fixed (worked around to be more exact) in OSXFUSE 2.3.9
