But it sounds like we can just assume very high fragmentation. It's not addressing the exact issue, but why are the files so fragmented? Are they very hole-y or is it just an issue with how they are written? Perhaps preallocation would help you here? -Eric -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
