The problem here is that we are not just talking about xfs stack usage,
we are talking about the complete I/O stack in some cases. So if you are
using a combination of XFS, LVM, and some driver which is stack hungry,
then all bets are off without lots of work - and not just in XFS.

I have actually been running Linus's tree with 4K stacks on my XFS only
laptop for a week or so without problems. I build kernels, I use
bitkeeper etc. Probably the fact that I am just using a simple ide
drive is the saving grace here.
