Reiserfs uses a very different filesystem architecture from ext2 and other filesystems, which makes it much much quicker at handling small files (its performance on large files is good, but not amazing). If you want some specific information on reiserfs, check out www.namesys.com, the webpage of the developers. Ewan On Mon, 2002-04-29 at 18:45, Manral wrote:
