You need another filesystem strategy then, something :)while we are on the subject... (will post this to current too) :)i assume that the current filesystem we have in the freebsd is not :)too able to keep up with the speed needed for high-feed news server? :)atleast this was told to me by someone who believes in xfs in sgi :)machines... :)he said that the news feed of about 7 articles a second is about too :)much for freebsd's filesystem, a log filesystem would be required... :)what is the truth? I have a friend running a pair of BSDI 2.1 boxes using nntp+cnews who gets 10+ articles/sec over a local lan. I'm setting up a redundant news box on our local lan and will test this myself. The main box will be BSDI 2.1 (nntp + cnews) and the redundant machine will be an Alpha UDB (166mhz) running Redhat Linux 4.0 and inn1.5(latest beta) in streaming mode.
