What do you think about security ? Who many more simple file permissions I plan implement ? ...Sorry for my english... > As I understand, RDBMS( and unix) developers should support this file systems...I very like raw devices to use with RDBMS. More less flexability, but more performance...But Sun Microsystems not recomends usage RAW-devices as tablespaces for Oracle because ufs has good performance if file access. Additional questions: 1. Why FreeBSD ? I don't known good/big/commercial RDBMS's for FreeBSD. I very like FreeBSD, but commercial vendors - not..., because it's freeware and no commercial support. 2. Should RDBMS's vendors support your FS ? Or unix kernel only ? Notice: May be some of my questions ( or all :) ) and comments not correctly, because I don't known english very well and I not C programmer.
