Sorry, before we got to the questions,
[reiser4 plugins to make mail delivery faster]
There are a few basic things that slow down mail servers when they talk
to filesystems:
1) multiple threads delivering to the same directory contend for the
directory semaphore for creating new files
2) atomic creation of an entire file
3) high loa

Hello all,
ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mason/patches/data-logging/2.4.22
Has a merge of the data logging and quota code into 2.4.22-pre4 (should
apply to -pre5). Overall, the performance of pre5 + reiserfs-jh is nice
and smooth, I'm very happy with how things are turning out.
Thanks to Oleg for mer

Whoops, I screwed that up.
Hello all,
This doesn't have the data=ordered performance fixes because I got
distracted fixing io latency problems in 2.4.21. Those were screwing up
my benchmarks, so I couldn't really tell if things were faster or not
;-) Anyway, I'm back on track now, and since 2.4.21 is out I've just
