Numbers like a bit over 2m for XFS with 'delaylog' and a bit over 4m without are for intermediate cases between the regular and EatMyData case, depending on how infrequently data and metadata are committed by XFS. If you want best "performance" with XFS, 'exec eatmydata "$SHELL"' might be the top solution ;-). _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
