Hi there, I'm actually testing around with FreeBSD 6 BETA 3. Regarding stability I'm really pleased, it runs and runs and runs :) No problems on that front. Back to the topic. I have a directory with several thousands (800k and more) small files. UFS2 shows a pretty low performance. I don't have numbers yet, but I'd like to know in advance wether there are tunable parameters. I couldn't find any sysctl'´s or kernel parameters. I'll report numbers, as soon as I have them. And yes, I disabled the debugging features in my kernel (WITNESS, INVARIANTS ...) Besides, I know that 6-BETA is not about performance at all :) any tips on file system performance with small files, though ? best regards, Marianhelp
