Hi Santanu, I haven't looked into this before, but looking at this page (click on the results sections at the bottom): http://www.bullopensource.org/ext4/sqlbench/index.html it would indicate that sticking with ext3 is your best option. Kostas is always good for information on this sort of stuff. Any thoughts?
