Hi,

I need some help in designing a storage structure for 1 billion of small files 
(<256 Bytes), and I was wondering how JFS will fit in this scenario.

JFS seems to be the ideal match because it's able to do block suballocation, 
but I'm not sure if this is function available in the linux port. 

So the very big question is: is JFS for linux able to suballocate blocks? 

Also, what suggestion would you gave me to better optimize the fs to waste less 
space as possible (slack), even sacrificing some performance?

Keep in mind that I never worked with jfs - I just read some documentation and 
browsed this mailing list - so forgive me if my question is silly

Tnx for any suggestion!
