That's hardly a surprise - you take the source code, compress it into virtual non-existence leaving hardly anything to be written to the disk... Obviously if compression speed >> IO speed and the result of the compression is a significant reduction in size, you have a massive gain in writing that data to the disk. -- Igor _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
