Hello All,

Is there an fs supported by Linux that does cluster
sub-allocation, ala Netware 4.x?

i ask in the context of browsing thru a samba share
using windows explorer(w2k) ... a folder that reports
so-and-so disk usage is supposedly using up 2x/3x that
amount on disk! Smells a lot like the classic cluster
size problem on FAT/FAT32( y'know, a 1k file eating up
32k)

My interest piqued, i formatted an ext2 partition with
block size=1024(as oppossed to the 4096  default), but
came up with roughly the same numbers. 

Comments?
