Okay I have had the Reiser4 snapshot managing my /home for a good few hours and while the patch itself was... very experimental... I'm completely blown away but the exellent speed Reiser4 provides me for usertasks.
Here's my favorite show off so far: patch your gtk+-2.2.2 with this: http://members1.chello.nl/~h.lai/gtkenhancements/ leave all the exports at their defaults, this way the fileselector will try to sort filetypes, causing some noticable slowdowns when clicking open... That was on ReiserFS3 - then I gave /home Reiser4 goodness and the slowdown is completely gone it just pops up... Please note I have a good few 100's of files in my home dir so sorting is a considerable task. good job guys, but please compile test next time :) - David Nielsen On Fri, 2003-08-22 at 17:08, Oleg Drokin wrote: > Hello! > > I have just released new snapshot of reiser4. > Release notes follows. > Give it a try. > > Reiser4 snapshot for 2003.08.22 > > WARNING!!!
