The minimum diskspace setting is to prevent that files get corrupted if your filesystem
is full. All drives are checked except CD-roms and floppies and the /boot directory if that
one is on a separate filesystem. Ext2, ext3, reiserfs, msdos and vfat partitions
are checked. The lowest free diskspace found counts. Default is 10 MB.
<p>
The Child priority sets the nice value for example zip/unzip, virus scanners
etc. Modern fast hardware will do fine with a low setting, older (pre PII)
hardware may need 15 to prevent a too heavy CPU load.
<p>
The filesystem sync setting is to call sync before and after the execute call,
such as when unzip is called. Almost all GNU/Linux systems need this because GNU/Linux
uses asynchronous directory changes. Since Linux 2.5.19 it should be possible to
mount filesystems synchronous. If this setting is No on asynchronous filesystems
mail and files can get corrupted. XxxxBSD systems use synchronous directory
updates and don't need this switch. If you don't know what all this is about,
leave this to the default setting.
