- xfs/kernel gurus, i am having a problem with a xfs fs on a raid5 array. i experience extremely poor i/o performance. i notice a LOT of processes enter into an uninterruptable sleep state when attempt

- This was a known problem at release time: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/1.1_caveats.html XFS 1.1 supports MD RAID0, RAID1 and RAID5. RAID5 with an internal log may perform slightly worse with XFS t

- Thanks. We're in the design phase of a new product and it's likely to use some sort of largish NAS box. Most likely raid 5'ed. Initially (due to cost) we'll probably do software raid but we'll want
