64bit Filesystems
Is XFS the only 64bit filesystem that Linux can use? I don't know why I really want to switch to a 64bit filesystem. I just thought it'd be a cool thing to have =o) Can anyone tell me if XFS (or any other 64bit filesystem) is any good? Currently I'm using reiserfs.

AFAIK the Linux version of xfs was ported as a file system for 32 bit software for Linux.The guys at gentoo strongly discourage it's use on a x86_64 architecture.
For 32 bit all seems to be good - seen a lot of guys bitching about reiser lately saying that they had more luck with xfs although I can't confirm that from personal experience - never had a problem with reiser. |
i heard JFS was 64-bit ... but i also heard XFS was 64-bit so i dono.....
but those are just the popular linux ones.. linux can still support about 10 FS's (I'm rounding... down it think) so there might be one thats 64-bit capable |
