NTFS eats itself with Windows 2003 SP1 under rare conditions

This doesn't necessarily give me a 'warm fuzzy' feeling about a few servers we have here.
It sounds like a race condition of some kind, or a missing semaphore/lock/etc somewhere in the NTFS IFS driver.

So, if you have tiny NTFS partitions that are almost full, on a multiple CPU server, that tend to get hammered a lot, be on the look out.
