It writes everything twice :) (but every journaling system has to write something twice) there is a big difference between something (metadata, short data writes and everything (like huge file data) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don't know how Gjournal works, but it works below the filesystem (so ^^ next lines shows you actually know. thanks for answer, for me it's definitely not worth using, i would prefer waiting for fsck every few months or less than to have much slower writes i think it is not aware of metadata), see http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2006-June/064043.html ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Concerns over memory utilization, speed, stability, etc... From everything I've read people use it in production successfully, but not without some tweaking or testing. That said, I would love to see XFS ported. IIRC you can't resize gvinum volumes on the fly either, if that's the case, that would also be a nice feature. On Linux I can resize LVM volumes, and then resize a live XFS without having to unmount it. Takes seconds. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
