For example, one of our partitions for homedirs (30GB) has an average file size of 50kB. I guess it's just happy with the defaults. However, we have a partition (again 30GB) with an average file size of 5 MB! What about that? any hints Jan -- Physikalisches Institut der Universitaet Bonn Nussallee 12 D-53115 Bonn GERMANY To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
