Hi,


I have a machine that randomly crashes. I wonder if lowering 

Variable         Default      Description
kern.filedelay   30           time to delay syncing files
kern.dirdelay    29           time to delay syncing directories
kern.metadelay   28           time to delay syncing metadata

would help having a more up-to-date fs (using soft-updates). 

Also is there a reason for the 30-29-28 (the 1 differece between)
sequence ?


tnx,
