Hello GFS developers, I am in the process of evaluating the performance gain of the "statfs_fast" patch. Once the FS is mounted, I perform "gfs_tool settune ...." and then i measure the time to perform "df" on a partially filled FS. The time is almost the same, "df" returns almost instantly, with a value really near the truth, and progressively reaching the true one. But I have noticed that when the FS size increases, the time to perform "gfs_tool settune ...." increases dramatically. In fact, after a few measures, it appears that the time to perform "df" without fuzzy statfs is the same as the time to activate fuzzy statfs. I've read the patch, and from what I understand, there is an inode used to store the fuzzy value of statfs, read once and updated later in background. So the behavior i experienced shouldn't happen. So, please, what am I doing wrong ? -- Mathieu -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Les opinions et prises de position emises par le signataire du present message lui sont propres et ne sauraient engager la responsabilite de la societe SEANODES.
