Hi Jurgen, |
11 |
It was suggested some long time ago, possibly on the Gentoo-users |
12 |
list or maybe a Redhat list. The little machine has a fairly slow disk |
13 |
drive and serves as a remote disk for our MythTV tuners. The tuners |
14 |
exist in another machine and they send all TV data across the network |
15 |
to get written to this disk. It seemed that using a large write buffer |
16 |
might be a good idea for ensuring we didn't drop data when recording. |

Thanks, |
