Hi all,
 I'm running red hat 7.2 with the 2.4.9-31 kernel.
Its an ext3 file system, exported for nfsv3 udp and nfsv2 clients.

nothing fancy at all.

I have quotas set for my users. If a user hits their hard quota and the
process continues to attempt to write to a file in their  quota'd space
- the process load on the server shoots through the roof.=20

I can reliably recreate this by setting a hard quota, having the system
hit the hard quota and continue to attempt to write to that file - the
server becomes terribly unhappy.

I never saw this problem on older 2.2.X servers and I'm not sure why I'm
seeing it now.

Any places I should be looking first?

thanks
