Big files; Slow I/O

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

wine has some issues when games are using big files, for example Guild
Wars - It's storing it's game data in one big file:

wdp@anni /games/Guild Wars $ du -h Gw.dat 
3.6G    Gw.dat

That results in very very slow i/o. It's not a file system issue (i
tried to higher read-ahead with hdparm, i changed from ext3 to xfs and
other games are running really fast on my box) thats why i think the
problem is wine related.

My questions:
- Any other users having problems with such big files (any other games
arround there storing data in one big file, resulting in slow i/o?)
- Any ideas how that could be fixed?
- Are there any unofficial patches to fix this issue?

ty

Cheers
Jean
