Database reads? Or raw FS reads? It's not the same thing. Also, we're talking *write speed* here, not read speed. I also find *your* claim suspicious, since there's no way XFS is 300% faster than ext3 for the *general* case. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
