Subjectperformance of vfat versus ext2?
Date
From

I'm running iozone on 2.0.27...

Its a 24 Mbyte dx4/100.
On ext2, I get:
riting the 25 Megabyte file, 'iozone.tmp'...13.010000 seconds
Reading the file...15.290000 seconds

IOZONE performance measurements:
2014942 bytes/second for writing the file
1714480 bytes/second for reading the file

For vfat, I get (on the same disk)
riting the 25 Megabyte file, 'iozone.tmp'...16.000000 seconds
Reading the file...339.420000 seconds

IOZONE performance measurements:
1638400 bytes/second for writing the file
77232 bytes/second for reading the file

For msdos mounts I get:
Writing the 25 Megabyte file, 'iozone.tmp'...12.990000 seconds
Reading the file...353.160000 seconds

IOZONE performance measurements:
2018044 bytes/second for writing the file
74228 bytes/second for reading the file


Any hypothesis? I did some performance studies in 1.* and didn't recall seeing
this.
