logbufs=8,logbsize=32768

[Marc Schmitt <schmitt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm using the latest stable release 1.2.0 with kernel 2.4.19 under 
RedHat 7.3.
As stated in the XFS FAQ, tuning the logbufs/logbsize values have a big 
impact on the delete performance. After running some bonnie++s, it's 
obvious that the impact is huge.
The mount options given in the subject are memory greedy, the FAQ says, 
on a 128MB RAM system, it is likely to fail.
What does the memory consumption depend on? Is there a formula to 
roughly calculate the memory consumed with those mount options per 
mounted file system?
TIA

Regards,
        Marc
