I gave up on journalling myself because IMO it complicates things a lot and the problem it solves is very very small. The impact in disk seeks is non-trivial to predict, but it is very hard to argue that it will not lead to an increase in disk seeks. (This is really a variant of the age old argument between jounaling filesystems and "traditional" filesystems) I can only recommend that you try :-) We need more ideas and more people trying out ideas. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
