Seeking info on FSFS benefits(2) (English)
I think FSFS advantages as below.
- don't depend on BerkeleyDB (BDB) versions.
This is great advantage. This causes subsequently
- We don't have to rely to one (large) binary database.
- Crash recovery of FSFS is looked easier than that of BDB
- By looking FSFS file structure, It looks easy to understand Subversion's version control policy(or implementation).
and I'm afraid of below:
- Processing performance in many revision files.
- It looks depending on filesystem performance.
- more files in one directory, less performance. and now revision and property file per revision is placed each direcory(revison directory and property directory).
