That was a bit optimistic. The script Matthias was thinking of is a shuffle filter; takes stdin and outputs the lines in random order. I can't give you a script that creates the input you need to reproduce the problem. However, if you can download a 4Mb file from http://www.bgl.nu/bogofilter/randlist.txt.bz2 and uncompress it, then you can do mkdir scratch ./bogoutil -l scratch/newdb <randlist.txt and that will take ca half an hour on ext3/ordered but around 4 minutes on ext2; a bit longer than 4 minutes on ext3/writeback. Fast drives might shrink those times in proportion. Cheers... -- | G r e g L o u i s | gpg public key: | | http://www.bgl.nu/~glouis | finger greg@bgl.nu | | Help free our mailboxes.
