Maybe, a first question should be: what is the downside of those tuning? One example: ext3 is slower as reiserfs in some circumstances. But you have a better chance to loose all your data being on reiserfs in certain circumstances as well. You may gain some performance from reiserfs for a period of time, but may have a severe "loss of performance" while looking for your latest backup tapes one day. Red Hat has been well known for being quite conservative back in the days of RHL, deciding for stability and reliability over performance. Peter
