Hello, I have been experimenting with ZFS on a test box, preparing to present it to management. One thing I cannot test right now is our real-world application load. We write to CIFS shares currently in small files. We write about 250,000 files a day, in various sizes (1KB to 500MB). Some directories get a lot of individual files (sometimes 50,000 or more) in a single directory. We spoke to a Sun storage person, and he said our scenario is unique in our file count, and we could run into severe performance problems. Has anyone seen how ZFS behaves under such file counts? Currently NTFS handles it reasonably well (Explorer doesn't like large directories, but our applications bypass that).
Any feedback would be appreciated! Regards, -- Brent Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED]
