: I am experiencing a same problem with some 40 segments. Chris, Do you have
do you have 40 segments, or do you have 40 files matching the glob segement* .. there is a differnece (the "segment" files records the number of segments, as of 2.1 they are versioned so they have names like "segments_7" "segments_8" etc... : any recommendation on the file system to use? not really .. i just wanted to know which filesystem people noticing this problem are using ... becuase it might make a differnece (since checking currentness is esentially just a directory lookup followed by reading one int from a file) back in the day i remember being told that NFS volumns would have serious performance issues doing any directory operations (list, create ne file, dleete file) once they had ~4K files, but i have no idea if that's still true. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
