Big numbers 1: MFS vs. TMPFS
Answering a pending question on "mfs vs. tmpfs",
Simon Burge has done some testing to
compare memory usage and execution times
on a number of common operatins on the traditional MFS which uses UFS
datastructures and cannot free them (i.e. which is "grow-only) over
NetBSD's new Summer-of-Code resulted TMPFS, which does not have these
drawbacks.
Looks like a pretty clear winner!
