What's the performance comparison between Reiser and ext3? I'm not sure I've seen any reliable benchmarks (oxymoron?) on this. The main advantage of ext3 is that it is trivial to convert your disks to ext3, and that even when you've done it you can still mount them as ext2. (You just need the kernel-patch-2.4.13-ext3fs Debian package, although I believe it's going in the main kernel in 2.4.15). And, as ever, thanks very much for your work, Jeff. -- Stephen Turner, Cambridge, UK http://homepage.ntlworld.com/adelie/stephen/ "This is Henman's 8th Wimbledon, and he's only lost 7 matches."
