Hi,

I'm upgrading xfsprogs from 2.10.1 to the latest 3.1.4 version. I noticed that 
when I'm creating large lvm volume (2T) the log size is almost 1G in the old 
version it was 128M.  
I know I can manipulate this value with -lsize option, but I'm wondering why 
this difference is so huge? 

On this volume I have one sparse file which is exported by iSCSI Target.  I 
have script which calculates  for me "seek" value for dd command and now it 
returns me wrong values.
Can I stay with the old log size or maybe there are some good reasons to use 
new values?

Regards,
Łukasz Oleś
