I have fsanalyze, which analyzes a filesystem for file-fragmentation and access times. I'd like to know a) Would it make the system faster when I reorganize the filesystem? Or is this irrelevant for UNIX filesystems? What about the filesystem types (BSD,SYSV, fast-fs) b) If so, what is the best way to reorganize? - backup using cpio, mkfs, reload? Or is there any program that does what PCTOOLS Compress does for MS-Doesn't disks? What ordering would be most beneficial? - Directories first, data files later - Directories together with data files - executables first (giving a list of the expected executable files) - anything else? aTdHvAaNnKcSe Mathias Koerber | S iemens | EUnet: koerber.sin@sni.de 2 Kallang Sector | N ixdorf | USA: koerber.sin@sni-usa.com S'pore 1344 | I nformation Systems | Tel: +65/7402852 | Fax: +65/7402834 Thank ME it's Friday, GOD said and created the weekend|#include <disclaimer.h>
