i've become aware of the fact that MS FAT 16 and FAT 32 file systems need
some babysitting as far as the partiton sizes are concerned in order to get
better performace. i was wondering if the same is true about ext2.  i know
that ext2 uses an inode table that is supposed to help it track files better
and uses a better file system algorithm, but how big is too big? in other
words how about a 14G HDD?  i'm probably going to partition it anyway, but i
was just wondering about performace loss and space loss (like cluster sizes)

thanks,
GT
