DO NOT USE DIRCACHE ON LARGE PARTITIONS. THE VALIDATION WILL CRASH DUE TO LACK OF MEMORY.
Thank you for calling :-)
Dont use dircache with hard disk partitions full stop. In the past it caused me nothing but grief and actually wound up slowing down a lot when the partitions started to get full.

That's true, but if the drive is too full or there is not enough memory the conversion can fail. It happened to me once - reorg seems to have a memory ceiling of 32 megs, I never seen it allocate more than that.
