I am going to use XFS on a Arch Linux box and I am looking for ways to maximize XFS performance. According to an article I have read [1], best XFS performance was reached with a file system formatted with a 64MB log and mounted with 8 log buffers and atime disabled. But I am curious, from the prespective of the XFS experts of this list, if this is still good advice and if it is still relevant, as this article was published in 2003. Also, I have seen a few people recommend turning off the internal buffers of hard drives (via hdparm) when using a file system like XFS. Good advice? Thank you! -- [1] http://everything2.com/title/Filesystem+performance+tweaking+with+XFS+on+Linux |
