Hello,
I'm pretty new to XFS. I'm considering moving away from ext4 to XFS because of the new self-describing option, performance and reliability improvements that XFS went through over the past year. Now I'm puzzled with the new free inode btree option (finobt). I tried to find some documentation about it but couldn't find the pros or cons. So from an end-user perspective with a couple of TB worth of photos: - Does it improve overall reliability? - Does it provide faster fsck/repair? - Does it improve any read or write operation? - Is it safe to use and does it recover as well as with finobt=0? - What is the typical case for enabling it and would you recommend using it for any new fs creation? Thank you in advance for your pointers. Alphazo |
