3 Just out of interest, I ran a small benchmarks using bonnie++ with the
4 default configurations. The results are bellow.
5
6 Just looking at the results, it seems ext3 is better than reiserfs in
7 most tests (speed and cpu utilization), only lacking in mass file
8 creation.
9 Is it really limiting to only be able to create 380 files per second
10 instead of 9500 per second -- does emerge sync create more than 380
11 files *per second*?
12
13 Personally, seems the best middle ground is xfs as long as you accept
14 the risk of data loss incase of powerloss, but I guess thats a minor
15 risk for raid0 users :) -- seems xfs is also perfect for laptops, not
16 using too much ram, yet bringing CPU usage and disk access levels to
17 impressive values.
18
19 What is your experience? Should I maybe run some other tests for
20 better accuracy?
