Re: Programming Language History
The graph at the bottom show a ranking of languages as "Most Popular". I wonder if that is the same as "In Use". Interestingly it shows Java as the "Most Popular".

Re: Programming Language History
Heh. The chart at the bottom shows which languages are the most popular. Java being at the top didn't surprise me... what surprised me is that Assembly is more popular than LISP. As an emacs user, I almost have to take that personally! *smirk* On 2 August 2011 09:35, Dazed_75 wrote: > I thought this was a very interesting visual history > > > http://www.howtogeek.com/69453/the-evolution-of-computer-programming-languages-infographic > > -- > Dazed_75 a.k.a.

Re: CentOS 5.6 supported/recommended FS?
Last I checked XFS was still supported; when tuned correctly it's still the fastest filesystem for database transaction logs (although some of the log-structured filesystem may eventually beat it). EXT4 still has some significant performance issues and has regressed quite a bit in that regard in the past few kernels. I just rechecked, and XFS support in RHEL/CentOS is part of the high-performance/high-scalability add-on in RHEL 5.6, and became "fully" supported in 5.7 (although it has been supported for a long time in the kernel), but there's no reason not to use it in CentOS 5.6 unless you have a paid support contract and didn't pay for the high-performance/high-scalability add-on (if that's even offered by your particular vendor). XFS is also probably the most stable Linux native filesystem (other than EXT2/EXT3) as it's been in the kernel about as long as EXT3 and still has active development effort to improve quality/reliability/performance.

CentOS 5.6 supported/recommended FS?
moin moin, we have a mix of CentOS 5.x boxen. They're currently using ext3 for the OS and reiserfs for a RAID0 filesystem for fast writing. We have a couple hundred of them. We've been experiencing a few kernel panics a month due to reiserfs. At one point when researching the problem I found statements that reiserfs ( and XFS and JFS ) are not officially supported filesystems for RHEL 5.x and therefore also not for CentOS 5.x. With 5.6 ext4 is now an officially supported filesystem. Is there a list of officially supported filesystems for CentOS? Any recommendations for a particular filesystem to use with CentOS 5.6 for fast log writing? ciao, der.hans -- # http://www.LuftHans.com/http://www.LuftHans.com/Classes/ # Boredom is self-inflicted...der.hans --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
