Hello!
I am doing my own tests with Ext4. It has better performance than ext3
FS. On some tests that I have done, I have 40 MB/s more than the same
hardware with ext3 FS. Have you seen the same ?
My doubt is about the stability, is it really for production use ? I
want to know that because I am really interested in use in production
use (like most of us, I think...). I have done some tests about crash
recovery and I have seen a good response. I have copied a lot of files
and I have cutted power on server. The filesystem is OK after the power
is connected again. I want to try with a mysql server on a intensive
inserting/writing, I think this is a good tes to do, because a database
server needs very reliable filesystem.
I also have noticed greatly-improved performance. For production
work, though, I'd wait for a later 2.6.28.x release, or even 2.6.29.
