directory. When you reach 10-100K files in a single directory you
may notice the slowdown without a stopwatch. NetApp's own file
system was designed to have a constant access time regardless of the
number of files in the directory (that was their claim to fame anyway).
Bottom line is that I wouldn't assume that a directory with 10K+
files is not the main reason for your performance degradation.
Hope this helps,
Konstantin
Hi Konstantin,
You're right on.
Dallas : ReiserFS is designed to perform well in such a situation of
having a lot of small files in the same directory. Can you switch to
ReiserFS ? If not, can you switch to memcached ? Are you expiring your
sessions ?
BR,
