I am a Large file MogileFS newbie.
I have been testing a small MogileFS install using mogtool. Works well
enough for file access. I noticed I have to use the --bigfile option
for large files. Does anyone know the current plan / status of adding
in auto-chunking in MogileFS in upcoming versions? At this point I
assume the client needs to do the work to chunk if the files are large.
There's nothing in trunk, no one working on it that I know of. Chunking
large files is an unfortunate default in mogtool. I tried working out
how it would be beneficial even, and it doesn't appear to help many
workloads.
If it continues, it may become an awkward non-default. If there's a good
enough use case that'll make people clamor for it, it'll get more work ;)
