> Tom, please stop this ext* filesystem bashing ;-)
For one thing... yes, i'm totally embarassed on this issue. I made a late-night math error in a spec. *hopefully* would have noticed it on my own as I coded to that spec but y'all have been wonderful at pointing out my mistake to me even though I initially defended it. As for ext* bashing.... it's not bashing exactly. I/O bandwidth gets a little better, disks get a bunch cheaper --- then ext* doesn't look bad at all in this respect. And we're awefully close to that point. Meanwhile, for times measured in years, I've gotten complaints from ext* users about software that is just fine on other filesystems over issues like the allocation size of small files. So ext*, from my perspective, was a little too far ahead of its time and, yes, my complaints about it are just about reaching their expiration date. Anyway, thanks for all the sanity about directory layout. Really, it was just an "I'm too sleepy to be doing this right now" error. -t - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
