Git, Builds, and Filesystem Type

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I'm thinking about trying out different filesystems over the weekend
to see if, say, BTRFS or XFS is faster when using Git and running our
build.

Currently, I'm using ReiserFS and it's not like it's not working. I'm
very pleased with ReiserFS but after seeing talks about BTRFS and XFS
I'm curious if another (newer) FS is better suited to our specific
environment. Anything to make the build a little faster. :-)

For the record, our (Java) project is quite small. It's 43MB (source
and images) and the entire directory tree after building is about
1.6GB (this includes all JARs downloaded by Maven). So we're not
talking TBs of data.

Any thoughts on which FSs to include in my tests? Or simply which FS
might be more appropriate?

Cheers,
Hilco
