Hello!
You can look at xfs: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/ I think this benchmarks help you: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ext4_benchmarks&n... I use this file system for MySQL with a big DB on Software RAID. This file system shows good perfomance for small files.

Dear all,
i'm setting up a new machine to handle a webserver with mysql
web directory contains alot of small files and database is around 15 GB
i've did a bit research, read alot of articles.. mainly i came up with the understanding that:
EXT3 is the set it and forget it kind of filesystem. and reiserFS is the best choice for small files though there's a bigger risk of data loss upon power failure (better solved in ext3)
any advice on this matter? or any other filesystem you advise me to use on a production system?
thanks
