Joe, what parameters do you give to newfs for your news spools?
(And Im still skeptical on your stripe size of a CG, but im being convinced
slowly :) The problem as I see it is that we have millions of 4k articles.
Okay, so maybe a stripe size of 4k is poor because of directory look ups and
what not, but why not a stripe size in the range of 128k or 256k, why jump all
the way up to 32MB, seems that you will miss the "sweet" spot that striping can
get you..
