With many small files reiserfs might be faster. But in all the bonnie-like pure disk I/O tests I ran on fast disk arrays, ext3 is much much faster than reiserfs. And if you're using mainly large files, XFS is faster still. Run your own benchmarks, don't trust others ... Mike. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
