Re: Very long delay for first write to big filesystem
...es that is what I really meant. My experience with
filesystems is mainly from CPM/BDOS, where "directory" and block mapping
are essentially synonymous.
And now I understand about the timing. Makes sense when you describe it
that way.
My system is ext4, although I doubt that I used "flex_bg" option, since
this was first created awhile back. I did try to run e4defrag. It simply
said that no defrag was needed.
So, now I'm only left in need of a work-around. Perhaps a way to have the
system load the bitmaps at boot time in the background? It would need to be
done in such a way...

Re: filesystem
...rnal, ext2 can't mount
feature needs_recovery. Despite from this, they are pretty much identical.
The fs driver called ext4 supports some new features, the prominent
(i.e. documented) ones are: extent (don't store cluster pointers but
instead cluster ranges - saving space for large files), flex_bg
(drop the constraint, that group meta data shall be stored in it's own
group, thus allowing to virtually create bigger groups. Probably you can
mke2fs one file system with flex_bg, then remove the feature flag and
perfecly mount and use it with ext2 / ext3, however, e2fsck may get cracy
on that...

Loop device performance
Hello, I have a production script that do read operations to a lot of small
files. I read that one can gain performance boost with small files by using
a loop device on top of Lustre. So a created 500 GB file striped across all
of my OSTs(which are 8). I formatted the file with ext2 fs, and mounted it
on a client. Just for the sake of testing a simple bash script finds all
files with a given file

filesystem
I hope this is the right list. I have created an ext2 filesystem and
removed the dir_index feature. I don't know if this kind of experimentation
is going to help me learn something about filesystems or not. Well what is
dir_index? Then I ran e2fsck -f -v -pD and the /dev file. Now what did I
remove? Htree. I guess it can always be put back and it's on an experimental
filesystem.

Re: Very long delay for first write to big filesystem
...y better job of finding contiguous free space
and avoid loading bitmaps that do not have enough space, but the
physics of seeking to read bitmaps is still the same.
If you format a new filesystem as ext4 (as opposed to just mounting the
existing filesystem as ext4) you can use a new feature "flex_bg" that
locates the block and inode bitmaps together so that they can be read
without so much seeking. You'd need a spare disk to format and copy
the data over to.
Using ext4 is also more resistant to fragmentation over time.

Very long delay for first write to big filesystem
I asked about this a while back. It seems that this problem is getting much
worse.
The problem/issue: there is a very long delay when my system does a write
to the filesystem. The delay now is over 5 minutes (yes: minutes). This
only happens on the first write after booting up the system, and only for
large files - 1GB or more. This can be a serious problem since all access
to any hard disk is

and the cryptsetup resize worked like a charm. I ran? e2fsck before the resize which pass sucessfully.
I added

Re: questions regarding file-system optimization for sortware-RAID array
The stripe and stride options do two things:
- shift block and inode bitmaps in each group to be on different disks
- align the block allocation to the stripe and stride boundaries to
avoid read-modify-write in RAID
The first one is irrelevant if the flex_bg option is used, since it already packs
the bitmaps together and achieves the same effect.
The second is meaningless for RAID-1 since writes go to every disk and
there is no parity or read-modify-write for small or unaligned writes.

Re: questions regarding file-system optimization for sortware-RAID array
Andreas,
why is it relevant only in case of RAID5 or RAID6?

From dumpe2fs, these are the filesystem features of the destination PC:

filetype needs_recovery extent flex_bg
sparse_super large_file huge_file uninit_bg
dir_nlink extra_isize

What do you think?

Effects of Missing ext3 Parameters
Hi,
I have two 3TB (hardware RAID-5) ext3 filesystems and recently added
1TB to each. I resized each filesystem and e2fsck -f reports that both
are fine. However, when I look at the ext3 parameters with tune2fs -l
one seems to have some parameters that the other one doesn't. In
particular, one has: "Reserved GDT blocks", "Filesystem created",
"Default directory
