mburks64> Can the fragmentation of JFS cause slow downs? Well, that's absolutely guaranteed, "fragmentation" causes slow downs in most cases. All and every filesystem that suffers fragmentation suffers slow downs -- the difference is how much fragementation is likely to happen for a given file system design and filesystem allocation and access pattern history. Some file systems design are more likely to result in greater fragmentation than others, and that is what is the really interesting issue. Once fragmentation has happened, no matter what is the file system design, access will be slower for most usage patterns. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
