Re: Unify namespace-size convention

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply.

The size of namespace as it contains entries for each file/directory on the
storage nodes, is directly dependent on number of files.

Size of namespace = total number of  files *  size of one block in
filesystem.

so, it would be useful to create a namespace directory (say partition), with
very less block size.

I don't know about number of files but you certainly can limit the size

the min-free-disk option in the rr scheduler. I assume you could also just
use ulimit. Anyone else with suggestions / knowledge?
