Hi, Between 2.6.33 and 2.6.37 there was a lot of interesting announcements with regards to XFS performance. However, now that I booted into 2.6.37.2, I still see the metadata slowness from earlier. (Basically `time (tar -xf linux-2.6.37.tar.gz; sync)` - ext4 gets the job done in like 15-20 seconds, xfs is still syncing after 11 minutes.) Was there something I missed? # xfs_info / meta-data=/dev/md3 isize=256 agcount=32, agsize=11429117 blks = sectsz=512 attr=2 data = bsize=4096 blocks=365731739, imaxpct=5 = sunit=0 swidth=0 blks naming =version 2 bsize=4096 ascii-ci=0 log =internal bsize=4096 blocks=32768, version=2 = sectsz=512 sunit=0 blks, lazy-count=0 realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0 Jan _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
