In this regards i have a question regarding chosing the stable and fast filesystem. I used reiserfs in fedora due to its faster input & output operation with file size of 1-5 Mb. Is UFS2 stable and fast(does it journalize). It seems to be slow when untaring a file. I am thing about XFS, how do i implement it in FreeBSD 5.4 in kernel, how do i get the XFS option during installation(I know for that i have to make own CD, even then). What are my options regarding file syetm in FreeBSD 5.4 considering mailing server performance. Thnax for the help...
