Well, guys, listen :-)
I and my friends mentioned that "FreeBSD + ffs" is often slower
(THAT slower) than "Linux + ext2" for number of tasks:
rm, find, tar ... for IDE & SCSI disks.
I didn't try things like "FreeBSD + ext2" or "Linux + ffs".
I attached here results of the test I performed. For test I "gunzip"ped
FreeBSD ports collection, in attachment You can find "scripted" output of
"# time sh install.sh" for both systems. Also there are "dmesg" outputs.
machine was THE SAME: read "dmesg",
FreeBSD-3.3 + softupdates + "# tunefs -o time" + "flags 0xb0ffb0ff"
(kernel was compiled with "-O2")
Linux - RedHat-6.0 with out_of_box_kernel, just
"# hdparm -d 1 -c 3 -m 16 /dev/hda", read "hdparm" output...
even as non-native English speaker I know few other other words which
begin with "f" :-)
is "fast" the propriate one for "ffs" ?
