When I format a partition (and I usually use ext4, with some f2fs mingled in on flash bashed devices), I always set the inode count myself, because the default was always much too high. Like 15 m on a 40 GiB partition or so. My arch root partition has 2 m inodes in total, 34 % of which are in use for a full-fledged KDE setup. That’s sufficient. On Gentoo, I might give it some more for the ever-growing portage directory. But even a few percent on a 10 TB drive amount to many gigabytes. -- Grüße | Greetings | Salut | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me on any social network.
