I've read in many places that file systems on Linux do not suffer the same fragmentation problems of Windows systems. No one has provided a clear explanation as to why fragmentation is not an issue for file systems such as XFS. Also, is there a way to determine the percentage of fragmentation on an XFS file system? |
