It looks like early phase exploration on the one hand, but on the other hand Red Hat Beta 7 is already using XFS as the default filesystem:

Interesting. It makes sense to use XFS if you are dealing with high volume data.
That matches my understanding. For example, the MythTV project recommends using XFS for its video files. In particular, its performance when deleting multi-GB files is much better than ext4. With the latter, they have to throttle back the delete so as not to consume all of the CPU. I have a couple of kernel sources on XFS volumes, and the kernel builds sometimes pause. I suspect that XFS is not so good with small files. Larry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
