I only posted data from half of one of these tests here because it was the only one that I found that both had noticeable overhead in the filesystem code. It also showed substantial, consistent, and measurable deltas between the different filesystems. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
