Also I have used older version without problems. I use it about everywhere. On my WB partition (back at OS3.1 times) I had to modify startup sequence a little bit because booting from SFS partition happened faster, but I do not remember details about that any more. OS3.9 seems to work ok with SFS, straight out of the box. I've not had any xGB limit problems after upgrade to OS3.5. I currently use 20Gb HD in 4Gb partitions (only 4Gb, just to make sure...) I've noticed that with 256kB buffer SFS became very slow when handling a folder with thousands of files. Now I use about 1MB buffer and it is fast again. If one uses FDA, I'm not sure if SFS would be wise to use anymore, because of the issue I just mentioned (it might still need it's own buffers). On my a4k's IDE drive, single file loading does not become noticeably faster with SFS, but loading of two files simultaneously seems to happen twice as fast as with FFS. I LIKE THAT! Also simultaneous read and write operations happen a lot faster than before (minimum 2x as fast as before). I LIKE THAT A LOT!! ;) Jump... #5 Rafo Top Previous comment Next comment bottom List of all comments to this article (continued) Comment 5 Rafo 07-Nov-2001 17:10 GMT Comment 6 Alan Watson 08-Nov-2001 11:52 GMT
