Because the leaf optimization has been enabled for reiserfs only until now. I suspect that NFS will not be that easy and such file system issues might be difficult to debug without the -noleaf option actually implemented. > In my experience one > should jump through hoops to avoid config where possible. > Until we see a case where dirent.d_type is accurate while > noleaf is not appropriate, then I'm inclined to avoid the config. > If this was an issue then there would need to be associated > -noleaf patches to find(1), and also other FTS using tools. That sounds like a reasonable approach for tools that do not implement any -noleaf option yet. However, GNU find has provided this option since 1996 (if not even longer) and the option has never been properly deprecated. > I've applied the patch to ensure noleaf optimization is > enabled for NFS, and also applied my patch enabling it for XFS. > > thanks, > Pádraig. Thank you for applying those patches! Kamil
