Hi everyone,

 

As disk sizes increase, we are increasing the size of our AFS disk
caches.  We have many that are 64GB or larger. Unfortunately, the cache
scan is taking more than 5 minutes when booting or starting AFS. Is
there some way to decrease this time it takes to scan the cache?

 

Is there a setting I can tweak that might make a difference?

 

Is it a problem that I have 913 DXXX folders in the cache folder, and
each has 2048 files in the folder?

 

My afsd options are "-fakestat -dynroot -chunksize 18 -stat 500000
-daemons 16 -volumes 2000 -blocks 59535014 . I dynamically add the block
option based on the size of the cache partition.

 

Thanks,

Jason
