Usually everything goes fine with the system but there is one kinda scary thing: sometimes some files seem to be getting filled with null's after recovery. I mean that after one recovery one opera's bookmark file was still there but the contents of the file was just '\0'. File was not truncated but its contents were "gone". I just would like to know whether this kind of behaviour is to be considered as a feature rather than a bug. I also would like to know what I could do to minimize the possibility for this to happen.
