SpadFS is an experimental file system for Linux developed by Mikuláš Patočka. SpadFS was first presented at the end of 2006, the most recent version (0.9.14) is from March 2013.[1] "Spad" is Patočka's abbreviation for Czech Systém pro Psychopaty A Debily (System for psychopaths and idiots).[2]
SpadFS uses crash counting to handle consistency problems. The filesystem also uses extendible hashing instead of B-tree based structures for storage. SpadFS also differs from other traditional filesystems by storing the inode information together with the directory entry itself.
According to the doctoral thesis,[3] the filesystem has been tested on a search engine with a 1TB RAID array.
