Hi all,

     Many apps launch will create new directories,which will set need 
checkpoint flag because

inherited  crypto info from their parent. During this time,  any 
fsynced  will write a new cp.

For the worst case:

     new dir1

                     fsync file a  (with no relations with dir1), and 
write cp  n

     new dir 2

                     fsync file b (with no relations with dir2), and 
write cp n + 1

     ... ...


Thanks.
