1 Hi All,
2
3 cvs.gentoo.org is available again, and its /home partition
4 has been moved to LVM. Even though I'm using just straight
5 LVM on a single hard drive, I'm getting massive performance
6 improvements with ReiserFS -- my .maildir (~1400 messages)
7 loads in ~1 second rather than ~10 seconds :)))) Let's hope this
8 translates to higher-performing cvs updates :))

10 If this experiment goes well, I'll continue to move parts of the
11 filesystem over to LVM. I do have a very recent backup (just in case),
12 and I have the old /home partition lying around at / just in case
13 we need it. I'll keep it for a day or so before zapping it.

15 Best Regards,
16
