If you use an external journal, you can re-create the journal keep the=20 data, if you use an "inline" journal on the same drive as the file=20 system (the default configuration), you need to re-create both the=20 journal and the file system (newfs). > Does a larger journal incease write speeds as I am finding them very > poor around 60% of a sync + soft updates drive. No. An external journal could help you to increase the performance. --------------enig0E678FF0F26DAA55DC9F80D5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHplDsldnAQVacBcgRAiVBAKDjGkq4G+F1QHyeAFuW0+Ky/459gQCdFDks OvTBenUnNw2OvzHEM0+hXX0= =wm6d -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig0E678FF0F26DAA55DC9F80D5--
