Re: Big files PUT into Subversion - encountering

Markus - you may be right on hopes for perf improvements.

I'm reevaluating what I said a couple of days ago in this thread. The best
case PUT times for that 15GB random resource at *7 mins*, but about 1/5 of
them are at *15 mins*. I'm going to try to undo the TMPDIR change and see
if it goes back to 15 mins consistently

The drive is mounted as 'async' in Linux. Is that what you meant by no-sync
? Sync kills USB drive performance by 90% on Linux in my experience.

The 4TB drive's Svn server size is now up at 3TB, if anyone is interested.
