hi, i womder if u can make yr filesystems faster than the fs currently there in linux, Although Lustre can load on one machine but it will further slow down u,its basis is read/write stribing across clusters, i dont know definately but use of scuzzy hdd wil slightly increase the speed,as it concerned with latency of head also but through software only its not possible if u have multiple HD's then try RAID0 if some fs exist to speed the I/O in single computer and single HD then i also wants to know abt that. but u wont get better anything than currently have of course software solution.
