Re: [CentOS] 5.3 on an EeePC??

Hmmm "This will wipe your drive." normally means what it says it wipes your drive to be honest if it was me then I would skip centos and go for the uhuntu, it's designed for the netbook and from what I hear i runs like the clappers on the netbook.

It came up with some startlingly strong caveat, to the effect that "This will wipe your drive." I took that to be so much more ubuntoid protecting me from myself, and went ahead, taking for granted that the installer would give me at least one choice which would preserve CentOS. Ba-aa-aadd move. It meant what it said : never gave me any other choice of anything, but went ahead and, sure enough, completely trashed my CentOS install. After that, the machine ran UNR and only UNR, even with thumbsticks in it. I finally ended up running DBAN against it -- and am still looking for other, *NON*-ubuntoid distros ... -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

GFS and Small Files
by Hairul Ikmal Mohamad Fuzi 03 May '09

03 May '09

Hi all, We are running CentOS 5.2 64bit as our file server. Currently, we used GFS (with CLVM underneath it) as our filesystem (for our multiple 2TB SAN volume exports) since we plan to add more file servers (serving the same contents) later on. The issue we are facing at the moment is we found out that command such as 'ls' gives a very slow response.(e.g 3-4minutes for the outputs of ls to be printed out, or in certain cases, 20minutes or so) This is completely true especially in directories containing "large number" of small files (e.g 90000+ of 1-4kb files). The thing is, most of system users are generating these small files frequently as part of their workflow. We tried emulating the same scenario (90000+ of small files) on a ext3 partition and it gives almost the same result. I believe most of the CLVM/GFS settings done are using the defaults parameters. Additionally, we would prefer to stick to GFS (or at least ext3) as it is part of CentOS / RHEL distribution rather than changing into other small-files 'friendly' filesystems (such as XFS, ReiserFS). I'm exploring whether is there anyway we can tune the GFS parameters to make the system more responsive? I have read that we can apply 'dir_index' option to ext3 partition to speedup things, but I'm not so sure about GFS. Below are the output from "gfs_tool gettune /export/gfs" : ilimit1 = 100 ilimit1_tries = 3 ilimit1_min = 1 ilimit2 = 500 ilimit2_tries = 10 ilimit2_min = 3 demote_secs = 300 incore_log_blocks = 1024 jindex_refresh_secs = 60 depend_secs = 60 scand_secs = 5 recoverd_secs = 60 logd_secs = 1 quotad_secs = 5 inoded_secs = 15 glock_purge = 0 quota_simul_sync = 64 quota_warn_period = 10 atime_quantum = 3600 quota_quantum = 60 quota_scale = 1.0000 (1, 1) quota_enforce = 1 quota_account = 1 new_files_jdata = 0 new_files_directio = 0 max_atomic_write = 4194304 max_readahead = 262144 lockdump_size = 131072 stall_secs = 600 complain_secs = 10 reclaim_limit = 5000 entries_per_readdir = 32 prefetch_secs = 10 statfs_slots = 64 max_mhc = 10000 greedy_default = 100 greedy_quantum = 25 greedy_max = 250 rgrp_try_threshold = 100 statfs_fast = 0 TIA. .ikmal
