Hi everyone, For those interested, here are results of a recent benchmark comparing ReiserFS, ext2 and XFS using mongo.pl (what seems to be a pretty extensive benchmark test suite that is has been used by the ReiserFS development team to measure the performance of their filesystem since they started, it seems). <http://www.informatik.uni-frankfurt.de/~loizides/reiserfs/ext2-reiserfs-xfs.html> These test were done on a machine running RedHat 7.1 with the Linux kernel 2.4.3, with a Duron 700MHz CPU, 128MB RAM, and a 9GB SCSI HDD. Filesystem versions compared are: Ext2 version 0.5b, ReiserFS version 3.6.25, and XFS version 1.0. I sent the same link to the XFS mailing list, in hopes that the XFS developers will have something to say about this. I also do not know how much better the latest CVS copy of XFS will perform on Linux 2.4.4 compared to release 1.0 on Linux 2.4.3 that was used in the test. --> Jijo -- Linux, MS-DOS, and Windows NT ... ... also known as the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
