Well now this is very strange. That P2V we started up Friday afternoon crossed into hour 52 a few minutes ago. But in the past 3 1/2 hours, it hasn't used one more byte of disk space in the NFS Export service. But then after firing up an strace just now, it started using space again. What's up with that?
