Hello, I am using kernel version 2.4.7-10 I upgraded one of the ext2 partition to ext3. the partitions are nearly empty. I ran a program to create empty files, having names in lexicographical order. The time taken to create empty files (100 .. 100000) is same on an ext2 partition and a ext3 partition. Can anyone pls. tell me why there is no difference in the time taken. Is the htree algo. implemented in both ext2/ext3 of 2.4.7-10 thanx in advance. -Sagar some info of the m/c: redhat linux, 2.4.7-10, 512MB RAM, nearly empty partitions. P4- 1.6GHz. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Send Flowers for Valentine's Day http://shopping.yahoo.com

I *very* much doubt that its implemented in any 2.4.7 additional patch set (thats presumably Red Hat 7.1 or so without recent errata), and don't think Red Hat have put it in any non-beta distribution kernel to date.
