Isn't the downside of xfs that it needs to be defragmented occasionally?<br></blockquote><div><br>I haven't heard that before, have you got any links?<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
With a mythbox always on, when would you be best to do that?<br>
</blockquote><div> </div></div>I ran xfs for a couple of years without any problems. I would imagine that the large files mythtv creates would not produce a lot of fragmentation. I'm using jfs now, just to try something different, and I'm not seeing any advantages to that.<br>
