Hi all, =09It=B4s a FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE, on a P-IV(2.4GHz) with 120G IDE HDD (UFS2+softupdates), as one data partition (mail). =09The test was done in a non-production server. =09GENERIC kernel. =09A "ls -l" in a /var/mail folder with +6000 files (not maildir) is taking more then 2 min to complete. =09I compiled (static) "ls" from the GNU filetools-4.1 and it takes ~1 min. =09Observing the final behavior I can say that gnu has an "unbuffered" output, while fbsds is buffered. =09It was tested in two different machines. =09Is it right? - Marcelo
