Re: Experience with FSFS

In all the FSFS benchmark discussion, I haven't seem many references to
file systems.
Does anyone have any experience (or even better, benchmarks) w/ FSFS on
various file systems. Of particular interest to me is ext3, ReiserFS,
XFS, and JFS.

Regards,
Nick G

Absolutely. We've been using it on a small repository since
before 1.1.0, and once 1.1.0 came out we switched all our
repositories. In those two months we've had zero problems.
Previously, we averaged a wedge every other week.

Theoretically, yes. See
<http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/notes/fsfs>. In practice,
fsfs has been faster across the board and the load average has
noticeably decreased on our servers.

Switch :).

Here are some numbers on our three main repositories, from
2004-10-01 to right now. The first repository was created brand
new and empty (as bdb) in July and now has over 15,000 revisions.
The second is largest in data size but isn't as active. The
second two are older, cvs2svn-converted repositories.

6936 revisions consisting of:
author count: 157
node adds: 6852
node mods: 20811
node deletes: 1461
revs per day: 110.095
