Thanks, all three are fair points.
1. XFS reflink is enabled and its reflink/CoW-break measurements do run. The dashboard button currently means “native/full-CoW filesystem family”, not “supports reflink”, but that distinction is not clear from the label. I’ll rename it to “Native CoW” and add a separate reflink-capable filter that includes XFS.
2. The current integrity comparison is XFS on LVM/dm-raid10 with dm-integrity in its default journal mode. It is not mdraid and not bitmap mode, so your suggested stack would be a genuinely different and useful data point. An md RAID5/6 over per-member bitmap-mode dm-integrity comparison against RAID-Z1/Z2 makes sense, with the weaker post-crash bitmap semantics documented.
3. I did not pin or record the scheduler, which is a reproducibility gap. The dedicated SAS machine currently has mq-deadline active on all HDDs and SSDs. I’ll add queue/scheduler metadata to results before considering separate scheduler variants, since it can strongly affect the mixed and latency-sensitive phases.
