You don't get more instant than that, and afaik its the least responsible for dataloss. JFS is a great performer, but when it craps, it craps one directory at the time, and simply returns permission denied on all files/dirs inside it. Not great. XFS has some aggressive caching that I don't want to speak about. Reiser has no recovery tools, so as long as you don't need to recover it works perfectly, when you do you're in the big pile. look at changing the timings too, ext3 + writeback will save data thats been alive for 5 seconds, if you really need more syncronization, get RAID. //Spider -- begin .signature This is a .signature virus!
