On Sunday, Tux3 was presented at SCALE 7x in Los Angeles: http://scale7x.socallinuxexpo.org/ Slides from the presentation are here: http://tux3.org/docs/tux3.scale.7x.pdf Audio will be available later (eek!). The presentation was given on a ten year old Vaio laptop running a completely modern Debian Sid, with XFCE, Openoffice, and one of Linus's latest kernels from Git. The root filesytem was Tux3: http://tux3.org/images/tux3.root.jpg Preliminary benchmarks show Tux3 performing well, though optimization work has not yet begun in earnest. Many thanks to the usual cast of characters, especially Hirofumi who continued to feed me bug fix patches into the wee hours of Sunday morning, and Timothy Huber who provided a wild ride to the show as well as some very slick graphics. Tux3 did not crash. That is good, because recovery is not fully implemented. However, we think it is about time to start reviewing this code, with a view to getting an early merge. The essential structure is all there, and it works pretty well. Tux3 has plenty to offer in terms of advancing the state of the art of Linux storage, and will best be able to offer that as part of mainline. Tux3 source code is here: http://hg.tux3.org/tux3 http://hg.tux3.org/tux3/file/3118107954f1/user/kernel/ A Git tree will appear soon, along with proper kernel patches. But that is for later and now is time to sleep. It has been a long week.
