Hello, We have an application that does a huge amount of disk i/o (mostly writes) and have hit performance problems. It seems that the use of O_DIRECT would help but information on the development status is hard to come by. I have checked 2.4.18 and 2.5 kernels and there seems to be an interface but no actual implementation. It has been suggested that it only works with ext2 but we need ext3. Could someone tell me what the actual position with it is? Thanks. -- Ian Leonard eMail: ileonard@ntlworld.com Phone: +44 (0)1865 765273 Please ignore spelling and punctuation - I did.
