You want to know how filesystems in general behave when they run out of free space? The general answer is that they need more effort to find free space. In case of UBIFS you also have to think of the garbage collector. See http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubifs.html At the end of the day you'll have to run benchmarks on your own to find out how a specific filesystem behaves on your workload... -- Thanks, //richard -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
