If performance matters to you, your comparison benchmarks should emulate your intended usage patterns. I think what is getting blended together is not just the inherent differences in file systems due to architectural differences, but also the impression that these newer file systems (ZFS, Btrfs) are ether immature or immature on Linux, and as such haven't been optimized for the platform. -Tom -- Tom Metro Venture Logic, Newton, MA, USA "Enterprise solutions through open source."
