That, and also the fact that it's significantly faster than the other FS when it comes to writing/reading from/to very large files, possibly from several simultaneously and/or on SMP systems. I'm not saying it's better than other FS always: ReiserFS has a noticeable advantage when you have many small files, and of course Ext3 has the kickass data=journal mode. But for multi-GB files, XFS fares better: video captue, generally any kind of video stuff, mastering ISO images, etc. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/ _______________________________________________ Dvdrtools-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/dvdrtools-users
