Simple testcase:
- install uTorrent
- verify in uTorrents advanced settings that diskio.sparse_files is set to
false 3. load a torrent and start it As soon as uTorrent has one piece completed it will create the to-be-downloaded file with target filesize. Then it will write piece data into the file. Under Unix the above results in having a sparsefile that is filled with piece data in order of download (which in the end gives a fragmented file) while under Windows this results in having a normal 'preallocated' file. The unix sparsefile can be verified by running 'ls -ls $FILENAME' and the Windows normal file can be verified in various places (explorer, increased diskusage, file-properties, etc...). If you do not want to install uTorrent, i can also give you a complete trace, but i don't think you will gain more information than what can be read from the attached trace already.
That doesn't qualify as a test case. Sparse files is a feature of a file system, Wine implementation has nothig to do with it.
