I have somewhat of an interesting problem: I have applications that
write arbitrarily large files (as much as 6 gig) and I find that the
best performance for these disks is to use something like MFS.
However, mfs has a maximum size of 512M.
md appears to have a very small maximum size and only resides in core
vn (somewhat depricated) appears only to reside in a file
The behaviour I desire is that the files will stay in memory
aggressively and not block writes (thus slowing it down) as much as
possible.
Is there a way to tune NFS to do this? Is there a way to have a
swap-backed memory disk that is large?
Dave.
