Re: ext3 File System Performance Issue

Hi Ellis,

In article <eu12ik$aim$1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>,

Let me put it this way: I would like to build my own swap, so that
it becomes larger in case the swap partition space is not enough.

And can you explain why that requires more than *ONE* file?

In this phase I just want to work out an operable version.
I got lots of programming bugs when merging files into one and manipulating
the
pointers using lseek(), so I just want to make things simple first.
Another reason is that I like to make it backward compatible with ext2,
which
poses a limit in file size -- 2GB I suppose?

Best Regards,
LaBird (Benny).
