Soft updates (softdep) support removed from -current https://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20240204112905 #openbsd #softdep #softupdates #flensing

https://bsd.network/@brynet/111869703511777704 made me curious about status (actual use & issues, maintenance) of #softUpdates in #FreeBSD #UFS2 currently. Howizit?

While searching for #journaling, got to know that it could be provided by either by soft updates or by "gjournal(8)" https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=gjournal&sektion=8&apropos=0&manpath=FreeBSD+14.0-STABLE : "newfs(8)" https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=newfs&apropos=0&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+14.0-STABLE&arch=default&format=html

How does above journaling _COMPARE_ to that in #ext4 or #XFS?
