Hi,

I really doubt about the validity of this URL (from Oracle point of view) :

http://wiki.novell.com/index.php/File_System_Primer#File_System_Comparison

They say :

ReiserFS :
It scales and performs extremely well on Linux, outscaling EXT3 with htrees

Whereas : by Oracle : (metalink note 279069.1)
(5)
This had been supported with SLES9, but now SuSE keeps ReiserFS only in maintenance mode. Due to the design in ReiserFS, it does not scale good enough for more than 4 CPUs. As of October 2006, there are no plans to support it officially in the future.

Best Regards

Yann

Radovan,

You may want to test on XFS, which is recommended to use with large files.
One known drawback is that a file system check will be very heavy on memory.
