By the way ... And what's about index usage in ext2(ext3) directories? Some months ago there was a benchmark sheet publicated in this list and it shown major performance win on handling large directories. Is it considered to include into ext2/ext3 implementation in Linus or Alan Cox series of kernels? Or probably did I miss something?
