Works great using the XFS Module from CentOSPlus. We use it for the data partition of our fileserver.


I just ran the script:

#!/bin/tcsh -f
@ number = 0
loop:
  @ number += 1
  echo touch $number
  touch $number
if ( $number < 100000 ) goto loop


on a XFS partition of a CentOS 5 x86_64 system with kmod-xfs-0.4-1.2.6.18_8.1.8.el5 and xfsprogs-2.8.20-1.el5.centos installed.
The script ran smoothly and took

46.238u 224.379s 4:37.93 97.3%  0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w

to complete; all the files are there. So 100000 files in a single directory is not a problem for XFS.

HTH,
Kay
