Hi
My experience with fs benchmarking is, that under different conditions the
results are different (and another filesystem wins).
Nearly almost fs benchmark have nothing todo with real life. They are run on
a freshly formated partition and so on...
For the reiser vs. xfs case just make following:
- Format a partition
- Fillup the partition with garbage, lots of differnet sized files and
simultaneous write (just a few untars in parallel)
- Delete some files
- Repeat the last 2 steps a few times
- After this, the filesystem should filled 97-99% including the comming
benchmark
- Run the benchmark
My guess: xfs will outperform reiser (and every other linux fs)
Then publish the results on a webpage with the headline "xfs is 10 times
faster as reiserfs!"
