Good suggestion ... Here are results with much larger *external* journal, on a separate drive (with regular, not chopped, code): tar with journal: ~25 sec rm with journal: ~29 sec So, it still takes a long, long time to rm, even with a big external journal. I *did* notice that the drives do *not* seem very busy, however. That would be worth tracking down. I would see a couple of blinks, then a pause of maybe a second or so, then a couple of blinks, etc. I have not tried a small external journal (to isolate whether it's the *external* or the *size* making the difference in the tar). I should also double check that the hacked code really is doing all of the right stuff regarding the rm. -- Ben -- Opinions are mine, not Intel's > -----Original Message----- > From: opengfs-devel-admin@lists.sourceforge.net > [mailto:opengfs-devel-admin@lists.sourceforge.net]On Behalf Of Daniel > Phillips > Sent: Friday, October 10, 2003 3:11 PM > To: opengfs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [ogfs-dev]It's the journaling > > > On Wednesday 08 October 2003 05:16, Cahill, Ben M wrote: > > tar with journal: ~30 sec > > rm with journal: ~30 sec > > > > tar, no journal: ~22 sec > > rm, no journal: ~ 2 or 3 sec!! > > Try making the journal much larger.
