Description

I mount a HAMMER file system called /www
$df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a 252M 88M 144M 38% /
/dev/da0s1d 252M 25M 207M 11% /var
/dev/da0s1e 252M 14K 232M 0% /tmp
/dev/da0s1f 7.9G 2.1G 5.1G 30% /usr
/dev/da0s1g 29G 169M 26G 1% /home
procfs 4.0K 4.0K 0B 100% /proc
www 19G 0M 19G 0% /www

I create a php file which content is

Then after days,run df -h again:
$df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a 252M 88M 144M 38% /
/dev/da0s1d 252M 25M 207M 11% /var
/dev/da0s1e 252M 14K 232M 0% /tmp
/dev/da0s1f 7.9G 2.1G 5.1G 30% /usr
/dev/da0s1g 29G 169M 26G 1% /home
procfs 4.0K 4.0K 0B 100% /proc
www 19G 8.0M 19G 0% /www

I am not run a cron to reblock /www
which file(s) consume the 8m space?

Or run a cron like
15 2 * * * hammer -c /var/run/www -t 300 reblock /www >/dev/null 2>&1
would make it better?

$hammer -c /var/run/www -t 300 reblock /www
reblock free level 0
Reblock /www succeeded
Reblocked:
1/1 btree nodes
9/9 data elements
909/909 data bytes
$df -h

the 8M space is not released.

HAMMER internally uses 8M blocks, so df will always show multiples
of 8M for used space.
However, if you create more files in /www, df used count should
stay at 8M until your files use up more than these 8M, at
which point it will probabely switch to 16M.

Yah, that's basically correct.  HAMMER uses different zones for different
kinds of allocations as well, so upwards of 40MB may be marked allocated
even if the filesystem appears empty.
