Hi,
“find “ runs far too slow on my reiserfs file system, on the file system I have only 3.4 Million small files under 2500 directories. An ext3 file system with the same contents tooks about 5 minutes for the command “find /demoFileSystem –type f “ to finish, while the same command took forever on a reiserfs file system.
It is against our general ideas of reiserfs file system.. I don’t know what’s going on.
The reiserfs file system is created with default parameters. “mkreiserfs –label demoFS /dev/hdd1 “, the entry in fstab is:
“/dev/hdc1 /demoFS reiserfs defaults,nosuid 1 2”, everything seems normal. When the machines reboots, it mounts reiserfs with no problems.
My base Linux system is FC1, my kernel is a vanilla 2.4.26 kernel, with reiserfs built as a module.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot.
