Filesystem performance tweaking with XFS on Linux

which is, esencially, a two-steps simple procedure:


Create xfs filesystem with a 64 megabyte log
# mkfs.xfs -f -l size=64m /dev/hda3

Mount filesystem with 8 log buffers, and atime and diratime disabled
# mount -o noatime,nodiratime,logbufs=8 /dev/hda3 /mnt/gentoo/

These simple tweaks do help! specially on large RAID partitions.

- Corrections, comments, and suggestions are always welcome -
