Try to play with parameters mentioned in laptop-mode.txt in the Linux sources. Then, try to have XFS log area on separate device. This can boost performance, because log data will be accessed and/or written in parallel (by hardware) to actual file system operation. I think very vivid data is: http://oss.oracle.com/~mason/seekwatcher I have my speed test nearly a year ago. Ext3 have big speed, until it starts writing caches from RAM to actual device. -- -o--=O`C #oo'L O <___=E M -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
