- Small note: ext3 is being ported to 2.4.x by a few folks. SCT is currently AFK I believe and has plans on doing this himself when he gets back (if I remember things correctly). I believe the folks do

- I apologize if this is a stupid question, but how could data journalling possibly matter to anybody? I mean, as long as the data are written to disk before the metadata are written to the journal, th

- If that's correct, XFS would be less than ideal for e.g. a Squid or a news volume. -- Regards, Juha PGP fingerprint: B7E1 CC52 5FCA 9756 B502 10C8 4CD8 B066 12F3 9544

- It is correct, but it doesn't necessarily follow that it's a poor choice for a news server or other application that has a large number of files. It's NOT that every created inode wastes space. If yo
