Reiser4 Benchmarks

Posted by michael on from the little-things-mean-a-lot dept.

unmadindu writes "Hans Reiser has benchmarked Reiser4 against ext3 and Reiserfs 3. Reiser4 turns out to be way faster than V3, and for ext3, why don't you check out the results yourself ? Hans Reiser states, "these benchmarks mean to me that our performance is now good enough to ship V4 to users", and he will be probably sending in a patch within the next couple of weeks to be included in the 2.6/2.5 kernel."

    Is it just me are these numbers meaninless?

    Summary:
    (BAD)Reiser takes considerable more CPU time.

    (NEGLIGABLE)Everything else is a little slower but without them telling me what the measurements for their time numbers it's moot.

    picoseconds? milliseconds? Who knows?

    What kind of machine? What the hell is a "belka/strelka"? Are these the names of the machines?

    Why only 256MB of RAM?

    Come on, the test was probably run on a Pentium 133. Why should I assume otherwise?

    I'll continue to use ext3 until I see some real stats. These might be it but I need more info than what they gave. :(
