:> :> Try using a smaller block size, like 16K. If that doesn't work then just :> stick with 8K I guess. The kernel's clustering code should still make it :> reasonably efficient. : :Yeah, I guess that's the only way to do it on 3.x... But how can I speed :up fsck then, since newfs will create millions of inodes I don't need :which will cause fsck to run for ages... : :Andrzej Bialecki The problem should only be effected by the blocksize (-b) specification. Adjusting the bytes-per-inode (-i) specification in newfs should not pose a problem. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dillon@backplane.com> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
