How did you do this conversion? Reiserfs exhibits poor performance if you simply extract an archive of a different filesystem. To get the best performance out of Reiserfs, you need to: 1. Extract/copy the original filesystem to reiserfs. 2. Make a new archive of the reiserfs system. 3. Reformat the filesystem and extract the second archive. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
