SubjectWe need help benchmarking and debugging reiser4
Can some of you help us by doing such things as replicating our 
benchmarks, and helping us debug it as we enter the last stretch before
Halloween?

Nikita and Oleg will describe the details of what to do to replicate the
benchmarks, please be sure to use reiser4 readdir order for writes to
reiser4 (that means don't use tarballs made from ext2 (Remember that
writes determine subsequent read performance.)), and to use the latest
hard drives and fast processors with udma 5 turned on. We are quite
sensitive to transfer speed since we do a good job of avoiding seeks.
We are sensitive to readdir order because we sort directory entries
(which is necessary for having efficient large directory lookups). In
reiser4.1 we will ship a repacker, and then it won't matter what order
you do writes in so long as the repacker gets a chance to run at night.
