Re: [ic] Performance hit from having many images in one directory?

Thanks Mike - so it seems to me there are no real downsides to
migrating to one of these newer filing systems apart from the initial hassle so I think I will go down this route, even if I do eventually also decide to
employ a hashing scheme.


FYI - I currently have over 1600 items/images in each of the thumb
and image directories.
We are using ext2 or ext3 (been awhile since the system was built),
and IC 4.8.x with a little customization.

When I upgrade to 5.x I will probably address the hashing suggestion,
but we really haven't noticed much performance lag, and with the
increase in processor power, and disk speed.....I may not take the
time...
The main database is Mysql. The web server (Redhat 7.x) only has
about 512K ram, and running on a 2ghz AMD processor.

Thanks for info - it's good to know that 1600 images should not be a problem on that sort of setup

I recently built a Gentoo system for the Mysql server using Resierfs,
and it has been up and running great for about 6 months.

Great, I think I will go with Reiserfs next time.
