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."

    After reiser4, what filesystems are actually decent competition for it? It'd be nice for OSS to claim not only the best web server (apache), best kernel, and best filesystem.

    Sick of gentoo zealots throwing plugs in completely unrelated topics? Me too!

    Not to mention the best software installation system ( portage ).

    Given that most of the people are not techies, they did not know how to ssh in and shutdown -r now, so they would just hit the reset button whenever they thought something was wrong and I wasn't around.
    I've found users doing that to my servers before now. I find that hitting them on the nose with a rolled up newspaper and shouting "No! Bad monkey!" in a stern voice tends to stop this behaviour...

    Code, Hardware, stuff like that.

    C'mon folks, can't we find someone more authoritative than this guy. I mean, what would someone whose nick is "hansreiser" know about this stuff.
