I upgraded some lan clients to 10.2. I notice that new installs use ext3. Is the latter better? Faster? Is there a problem with reiser?
http://lwn.net/Articles/202780/ Summary: It does not scale. For uniprocessor, it should not make much difference. But reiser3 horribly bogs down on multi-core servers, for example during kernel compiles after a tarball was extracted (which is what happens with `rpmbuild kernel-default.spec`.)
Why did suse change it? My nfs server is cli 7.2 with ext2. Is it wise to export nfs between differing filesystems? Or can I assume that if it isn't broke then don't fix it?
"If it ain't b'roque, don't fix it." (Cogsworth from "Beauty and the Beast".) NFS does not care about filesystems. But I'd really upgrade that olde 7.2 to something that is actually security-supported.
