Re: [GENERAL] ext3 block size

[DeJuan Jackson]

Don't know the answer to your question, but I thought I would just pipe in and say that if this is an SMP (has multiple processors) Linux box you don't want to use ext3!!!

I used ext3 on my SMP box here at work and now I can't have children (I guess it would help if I got a wife first)!!
But in all seriousness SMP + ext3 = BAD(unpredictable crashes depending loosely related to system load).
