Hello, I believe that everybody here knows about the "slow msdosfs" problem, that is AFAIK caused by implementation without clustering. For me this is very annoying, because I use digital camera, and ZIP drive, and FAT on both of them. Speed is about 10 times lower than it could be.. I would like to rewrite the msdosfs driver to use clustering (in fact, I have chosen it as school project, so I have to do it anyway :). Is there anybody, who could spend few minutes and write me some information about how these filesystems are implemented, what should I read first, and what steps to follow to implement clustering ? I am ready to do the hard work :) Thanks Tomas Pluskal To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
