I'm not sure why 10 million files would be a problem. I've got several production filesystems with 30 million files in them, and they work just fine (and we expect to grow well above the sizes and numbers you give above). I've got plenty of ufs filesystems with 10-20 million files in them. Backing that up would be a problem, but I can't see zfs having issues. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
