I remember reading some benchmark to the effect that ReiserFS outperforms ext3 in terms of speed. But ext3 has some functionality that ReiserFS lacks. And benchmarks are only benchmarks. Anyway I just moved two boxen from ext3 to ReiserFS and I noticed a general system speedup in both cases. Have you tuned your hd with hdparm? In some cases really makes a difference. alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
