Correct, the benchmark just copies, moves, hardlinks and deletes a lot
of small files. It also overwrites existing files but not at the same
scale it does the other operations.
I always had the feeling that waiting a day or unmounting caused a lot
more truncation. On my system at home for example I mounted the test
filesystem again and saw that files where truncated and I am pretty sure
that when I looked at those files during and shortly after the test they
where still complete. But I will recheck and do test as you suggested.
What I find strange is that the missing parts of the file are not for
example exactly 512 or 1024 or 4096 bytes it is mostly some odd number
of bytes.
