Because once the directory becomes full, operations like open() and unlink() slow down noticeably. There are three solutions: 1. Throttle down the injection process to keep the todo directory from overflowing. 2. Get a decent filesystem (like reiserfs for linux) 3. Apply a big-todo patch (it hashes the todo directory in the same way the mess, remote etc. directories are hashed). [Keep in mind that you need to empty the queue, first.] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.2 -- QDPGP 2.61a Comment: http://community.wow.net/grt/qdpgp.html iQA/AwUBOfbP0lMwP8g7qbw/EQIYEACdFlurhEBvfvUQCqWanfEFuIKaGTUAoPyk zYPjgBwOYEemOqcsAcU7PcFj =GWap -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Petr Novotny, ANTEK CS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.antek.cz PGP key ID: 0x3BA9BC3F -- Don't you know there ain't no devil there's just God when he's drunk.
