Possibly, but how much less (and which ext)? Without numbers that's not very helpful :-) I think that the underlying FS is only a major concern in setups where the load is explicitly I/O-bound - that is to say, where the active dataset is significantly larger than the available memory. I do not think the majority of installations match that description. -- Unhappiness is discouraged and will be corrected with kitten pictures. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
