- What's the status of the realtime partition feature in XFS? I think I read somewhere that it wasn't actually implemented and/or working in the Linux XFS implementation, but I'm not sure. If it is in

- Experimental, implemented in linux and mostly just works, but is largely untested and not really recommended for any sort of production use. Has a couple of drawbacks: realtime device extent allocati

- Thanks. My point is that the big win of the SSD comes from its lack of rotational and seek latency. They really shine on random small reads. On large sequential reads and writes, modern rotating disk

- Yes, I am new to the list, and while I did pull down a year of the archives I certainly haven't read them all. Thanks to this file pointer and your explanation, I now have a pretty good idea of what'

- Which often does not require IO because the path and inodes are cached in memory. Not that much more quickly, because XFS uses readahead to hide a lot of the directory traversal IO latency when it is

- I'm thinking mainly of rapid file creation or deletion, such as tar xjf linux-2.6.37.tar.bz2 rm -rf linux-2.6.37 Most of the paths are likely cached, yes, but a lot of inodes are being rapidly create
