Hello Every one,
This is something I read in tech doc a while back, but now I cant seem to
find it and cannot recall either.
The paper talked about some limitations regarding different filesystem block
sizes (2k, 4k, 8k, and etc). I know that how the disk efficiency is affected
by diffenet block sizes, but I believe there was more than that in techincal
white paper. I would like get pointers from the list members who have more
knowledge on the subject matter.
Please enlighten me if you can. Your commects and pointers will be greatly
appreciated.

Regards

Aali Naser
