...I cannot really get from "designed 20 years ago" to "so it works well on current PCs" :-)
How's this:
== Having been designed for supercomputers from the mid-90's, XFS is able to leverage the advanced CPU, RAM and RAID feature sets common in today's laptops, desktops, and servers. The key features ext4 does not leverage well include multi-core CPUs, large amounts of RAM and dedicated RAID hardware. ==
The RAID part may be misleading. I'm not sure how ext4 handles that. XFS will try to assemble an entire RAID5 or RAID6 stripe and write in one whack. That eliminates the typical read / modify / write sequence needed when working with parity raid.

Hi. Support for multi-core CPUs is transparent or it needs a mount option? Last time I used XFS was slow deleting files, has it been improved? Greetings. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
