For ext3, the dir_index feature can speed up directory lookups. You can enable it with tune2fs -O dir_index /dev/hdaX if you're not already using it.
It's also a good idea to mount with the noatime option since the default is to update the inode with a timestamp each time a file is accessed. -- bogomipz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bogomipz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3743 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32134 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
