Hi,
I'm new to Linux, recently installed SUSE Ent 9 and was disappointed to
find the max disk block size in XFS was only 4K even though
documentation on XFS indicated it could support block size up to 64K. I
found a reference on you pake that indicated other block size as a
'kernel compile option' on Intel 64 platform. Please advise or provide
me with a good source on how this can be accomplished. It is of
particular importance to my application that writes typical files above
20GB. Having bigger block size has made a huge performance difference
under windows and I would like to give Linux an honest shot and
providing comparable performance.
Thanks.
