I can't make a promise that I can swing free GCE credits for *everyone*, but for maintainers of major file systems, or senior file system developers in general, we can probably work something out. - Ted P.S. I also have blktests working in gce-xfstests; it's not clear it's as useful, and there are a lot of test failures which I think are test bugs, but in theory blktests can be used via gce-xfstests. I also have very rough Phoronix Test suite support, and I hope to try to get mmtests running out of gce-xfstests as well. Which probably means I should think about renaming it. :-)
