2006-07-05 Thread Bron Gondwana
If I sound a little bitter, it's because I was up until 5:30am the other night after a hardware failure left us with corrupted filesystems on our master server, and fetching old messages from the replica returned blank responses. We eventually discovered that reconstruct could fix it, and 36(!!)

You can contain the fanout by enabling both fulldirhash and hashimapspool in imapd.conf (but you will need to stop the server and rehash everything if you do this on an existing system). Of course -- but hashing only gets you so far. The 32000 limit applies to subdirectories, not to files so

Hello Really? Nice. But you would have to re-create the ext3 filesystem with this newer 2.6 kernel, right? Or would tune2fs do the job given the right options? I once enabled the index-option with tune2fs on an old ext3 filesystem at 2.4 kernel which didn't give much performance boost. But

It would be nice to have more details about version of ReiserFS, what hash was being used, kernel version, hardware involved, and NFS or not (especially kernel NFSd)... That said we use ReiserFS on our mail and on our NFS servers running a 2.4.27 variant with about half a TB in NFS and about
