I am not aware of any ZFS results on such tasks, may be you will be the one who share them ;) However RaiserFS whould be the best choise on such spesific case. It's not available on FreeBSD currently. I don't think UFS can handle a huge amount of small files effectively. Of course gjournal could be an option for fsck problems, but how do you plan to backup or sync this storage? -- ====================================================================== - Best regards, Nikolay Pavlov. <<<----------------------------------- ====================================================================== _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
