said that ReiserFS handled large amounts of files much better than ext2 or ext, but what about a MySQL database situation with a very limited numbers of files. Such as 300, or less than 100 even? Is Reiser a better FS than ext3 for MySQL when you have a very limited number of files, and when the files are larger in size, such as 2-3GB each? Or is there not muchI would E-mail the reiserfs list and ask for whether ReiserFS would be better for a MySQL-only partition than ext3 and see what answers you get. In the worst case, you'll have some extreme "resierfs is always better" responses that don't help you decide. In the best (and what I think will happen), someone will tell you the differences in CPU usage or fast file access speeds or some such value that will mean something, or even that it is not actually going to make a difference.
