Hello, Kirk. You wrote 27 =E0=E2=E3=F3=F1=F2=E0 2011 =E3., 0:52:51: > Given how much bigger your new filesystem has grown, copying out to > another filesystem should not be necessary. However, it will likely It is theoretically different strategies: (a) copy from FS to same FS, mand remove old copy later, force OS to choose new place for data. (b) copy out, remove, copy in allow OS to use same place. > be quicker to copy out to another filesystem as you will be using > two spindles instead of seeking back and forth on one.

I'm going to investigate alter, why it is ony ~180MiB/s, when theoretically it should be about (90*4) 360MiB/s linear read, and whom to blame: UFS or geom_raid5 or both :) --=20 // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov <lev@FreeBSD.org>
