Hello,
if I remember right, somebody wrote a few weeks ago, that with
1.6.x the choices for the cache partition on Linux systems aren't
limited to ext2 only anymore. Is this correct?
Correct.
If yes, which filesystems are possible to use (which ones are not)?
Does the cache even need its own partition nowadays?
Usual all FS are possible, some are useless (NFS e.g.). Would be
interesting to see the cache on OpenAFS itself^^
It still needs a partition, but you can loopmount a file for it. Or
use memcache.
I still would go with ext2 or ext3. But maybe some other fs is a bit
faster, never tested.
I remember hearing/reading once that ext4 with the journal disabled
would be faster than ext2, but I've never actually tried it.

Thanks...
