Hi, System : Fedora 11 x86_64 Current Filesystem: 150G ext4 (formatted with "-T small" option) Number of files: 50 Million, 1 to 30K png images We are generating these files using a python programme and getting very slow IO performance. While generation there are only writes, no read. After generation there are heavy read and no write. These files are not in a single directory, this is a pyramid structure. There are total 15 pyramids and coming down from top to bottom the sub directories and files are multiplied by a factor of 4 I am looking for an alternate file system and best practices/recommendation to get a better performance. What the optimisation methods available in reiserfs for small files?
I think that default tail packing policy would be the best for you. Also use tea hash. Thanks, Edward.
Any suggestions of the above are greatly appreciated. Viji -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe reiserfs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
