    I'm not a torrent expert, but I thought it did enough checksumming
    such that if the packet got mangled, it would get noticd by the
    torrent client before it writes the chunks to disk?

    We actually run fsx in a number of different configruations as part of
    our regression testing before we send Linus a pull request, and
    haven't found any issues. So unless it's a hardware problem, it seems
    unlikely to me that your running fsx would turn up anything.

    Can you send a dumpefs -h of the file system in question, and what
    mount options (if any) you are using? Thanks!!

    BTW, I'm currently running 3.9-rc2 with some additional fixes from the
    ext4 dev branch, and I'm not able to reproduce the problem using
    rtorrent on my laptop. How reliably is it reproducing for you? Are
    you seeing the problem every time you try this?
