[gpfsug-discuss] GPFS 3.5 Announcement

[Scott Fadden]

There are a number of small file performance improvements around memory 
utilization of small file IO, updated algorithms for prefetching, inode 
cache management and logging.

"Each fileset owner now has the ability to control quotas for users 
and groups of their fileset."

This just means that each fileset can be managed independently. There is 
no new "owner" context in GPFS 3.5.

Good stuff - thanks for forwarding that on Jez.

I wonder what the "improved small file performance" is. Also interesting 
to see mention of a "fileset owner":
  "Each fileset owner now has the ability to control quotas for users 
and groups of their fileset."

I'll look forward to giving this a good kick about on April 20th - I've 
already booked a slot in my diary ;)
