Hi,
I added a disc to my box. I wanted to use ext4. I run fs_mark to test
speed, to my surprise I heard a really strange noises.
It's very strange because the drive is new
9 Power_On_Hours 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age
Always - 12
# fs_mark -d test/
[..]
FSUse% Count Size Files/sec App Overhead
0 1000 51200 22.8 54347
I decided to create an ext3 file system on this drive and everything works fine.
# fs_mark -d test/
[..]
FSUse% Count Size Files/sec App Overhead
0 1000 51200 103.7 57229
When I mount this ext3 fs as ext4 and run fs_mark I hear strange sounds again.
I use F14 and self compiled kernel from rawhide 2.6.37-1.fc14.x86_64 +
e2fsprogs-1.41.14-2.fc14.x86_64.
I mount ecryptfs on top of this file system.
Does anyone know what might be causing this strange ext4 behavior?
