I didn't see any mention of this in the archives. There are some
ReiserFS benchmarks at
http://www.gurulabs.com/ext3-reiserfs.html
The first set of tests (for small files) show a significant performance
advantage with 'notail' turned on. Assuming disk space is not an issue,
are there any performance advantages to 'notail' that are not reflected
in these tests?
Also, can anyone comment on why Ext3 has a significant edge over ReiserFS
in the small-file tests, but the situation reverses as file-size
increases? There's not much commentary in the article.
