Does this patch improve the performance of a file server, using
multiple disks, controlled by quotas, exported by NFS/Samba ?

If so, I would be really interested: our file server (4.11, but
perhaps 6.x soon), has some major slowdowns when one or multiple
user/s exceed her/his quota ; this impact every user, even those
working on another disk.

Thanks,
