I was just playing with the 12/30 snapshot, and I noticed along with being able to set async, that the block and fragment sizes are up to 16384 and 2048, respectively. Is there any particular reason, other than a performance increase, to do this? I'm just concerned that this change may have noticable impact, particularly if someone has a filesystem that is mostly lots-of-small-files, such as the ports collection. -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-qa" in the body of the message
