Listman, What's the average size of your files? Do you have many file deletions/moves going on? I'm not that familiar with how Perforce handles moving files around.
XFS is bad at small files (worse than most file systems), as SGI optimized it for larger files (> 64K). You might see a performance enhancement with ZFS. You'll definitely see a management benefit from ZFS. -J On 11/14/06, listman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
hi all, i'm considering using ZFS for a Perforce server where the repository might have the following characteristics Number of branches 68 Number of changes 85,987 Total number of files (at head revision) 2,675,545 Total number of users 36 Total number of clients 3,219 Perforce depot size 15 GB I'm being told that raid 0/1 XFS on linux would be the most efficient way to manage this repository, I was wondering if the list thought that ZFS would be a good choice?
