Now this I really like. It would make benchmarking 8K vs. 16K blocksizes much easer, as well as of course avoiding the "initdb required after rebuilding" problem. BTW, pretty much every BSD system is going to be using 16K block sizes on large partitions; the cylinder group size and filesystem overhead is way, way too small when using 8K blocks. cjs -- Curt Sampson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +81 90 7737 2974 http://www.NetBSD.org Don't you know, in this new Dark Age, we're all light. --XTC ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
