Why ext3 uses different policies to allocate inodes for dirs and files?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The policy seems to distribute dir inodes uniformly on all block
groups. Why do we want to do this?  Isn't it better to create a dir
inode close to its parent dir inode?

Thanks in advance for your help!
