EFS Parameters
The IRIX Extent File System works closely with the operating system kernel, and the following parameters adjust the kernel's interface with the file system.
The following parameters are defined in the efs group:
- efs_inline - Whether to store symbolic link information in the inode or not.
The following parameters are set in the kernel parameter group, and are used for file system tuning. They determine how many pages of memory are clustered together into a single disk write operation. Adjusting these parameters can greatly increase file system performance. Available parameters include:
- dwcluster - number of delayed-write pages to cluster in each push.
- autoup - specifies the age, in seconds, that a buffer marked for delayed write must be before the bdflush daemon writes it to disk.
