| |
Running a find over the whole fs in 2.0.x and in a 2.1.x show differences:
2.0.33:
andrea@ark:~$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/inode-nr 432 337
2.1.110-pre2:
andrea@dragon:~$ cat /proc/sys/fs/inode-nr 4112 16 andrea@dragon:~$ cat /proc/sys/fs/inode-max 4096
At first how can be possible that the number of allocated inodes is greater than the max in 2.1.110?
As second is there a way to avoid the use of so many inodes in 2.1.x kernels? And why 2.1.x leave so many inode used?
So many inode allocated should help a lot to make not happy low memory machines (I think this is the first cause of the find />/dev/null slowdown at second launch on 2.1.x with little ram)...
