I don't know if it can help but: set the noatime option on the
filesystem.

RE: really poor performance on a 2 terabyte gfs

Greg,
I am a bit nervous about your posting.  I have just bought GFS 5.1 and was
looking to deploy  it on Linux with 2 terabyte filesystems.  

Have you contacted the Sistina support? It would be nice to know how to
resolve this before creating my LUNs and Filesystems.

Wishing you the best....

Robert

does anybody out there have a configuration with at
least a 2 terabyte filesystem? i am using gfs 5.1 and
in even doing simple things like 'ls -l' it takes
MINUTES to return a result. basically we have a large
ftp site currently running on  an sgi. the same
command
on the same directory structure behaves normally, or
as one would expect it to, on the sgi. on our linux
box, running gfs 5.1, the results take up to two
minutes
to return a listing. thanks.
