Yes it's save to unmerge your old gcc.
You could also - using quickpkg - create a binary package of your old

I have a laptop which has an AMD Athlon Neo X2 L335 2.2GHz Dual Core
processor on it and I'd like to know which architecture (handbook and

The Athlon Neo X2 is a x86 processor with amd64 support. So you can
either chose x86 or amd64 (if you'd like to run a 64bit system).
I don't see any address size but when I cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep size I
get casche size 256 KB and clflush size 64. The laptop has 4G of memory.
With 4G or more I would go with amd64.

Howdy gentooers,
I am looking for a filesystem that perfomes well for a cache directory.
Here's some data on that dir:
- cache for prescaled images files + metadata files
- nested directory structure ( 20/2022/202231/*files* )
- about 20GB
- 100.000 directories
- about 2 million files
The system
You should have a look at xfs.
I used to use ext4 earlier, traversing through /usr/portage used to be
very slow. When I switched xfs, speed increased drastically.
This might be kind of unrelated, but makes sense.
I guess traversing through directories may be faster with XFS, but in my
Have you indexed your ext4 partition?
# tune2fs -O dir_index /dev/your_partition
# e2fsck -D /dev/your_partition
Hi, the dir_index is active. I guess that's why delete operations take as
long as they take (index has to be updated every time)

The system has 2x Intel Xon Quad-cores (Nehalem), 16GB of RAM and two
10.000rpm hard drives running a RAID1.
1st thought: switch
I guess traversing through directories may be faster with XFS, but in my
experience ext4 perfoms better than XFS in regard to operations (cp, rm) on
small files.
I read that there are some tuning options for XFS and small files, but
never tried it.
But if somone seconds XFS I will try it

3rd thought: purging old files with find? your cache system should
have some kind of DB that holds that information.

Sure, but wouldn't compression make write operations slower? And isn't he
looking for performance?
