            Bug ID: 219498
           Summary: newfs forces optimization to space when -otime
                    explicitly specified
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: eekee57 at fastmail.fm

i'm setting up a partition in which root has almost no reason to write files,
certainly none relating to the continued function of the operating system.
therefore, i passed '-m0' to newfs. i also passed '-otime' because space is not
particularly critical, there's just no reason to reserve a whole 40gb for root.

# newfs -Lturkudata -m0 -otime -U /dev/ada0s1h
Warning: changing optimization to space because minfree is less than 8%

why is it overriding what i explicitly ordered it to do?
