SubjectRe: Reiser4. BEST FILESYSTEM EVER? I need help.
Date
Hi Ignatich,

After seeing the following benchmarks at

http://linuxhelp.150m.com/resources/fs-benchmarks.htm and
http://m.domaindlx.com/LinuxHelp/resources/fs-benchmarks.htm

The Reiser4 benchmarks are so good, I have decided to try the Reiser4
filesystem.

.-------------------------.
| FILESYSTEM | TIME |DISK |
| TYPE |(secs)|USAGE|
.-------------------------.
|REISER4 lzo | 1938 | 278 |
|REISER4 gzip| 2295 | 213 |
|REISER4 | 3462 | 692 |
|EXT2 | 4092 | 816 |
|JFS | 4225 | 806 |
|EXT4 | 4408 | 816 |
|EXT3 | 4421 | 816 |
|XFS | 4625 | 779 |
|REISER3 | 6178 | 793 |
|FAT32 |12342 | 988 |
|NTFS-3g |10414 | 772 |
.-------------------------.

Column one measures the time taken to complete the bonnie++ benchmarking
test (run with the parameters bonnie++ -n128:128k:0)

Column two, Disk Usage: measures the amount of disk used to store 655MB
of raw data (which was 3 different copies of the Linux kernel sources).

Anyway, I have patched the 2.6.20 kernel and have a partition formatted
with Reiser4.

However, I am having trouble getting LILO or GRUB working (with
Reiser4).

Could you guys who know all about this, help me, or point me to some
help.

Thanks a lot, John.
