[Ocfs2-users] Cluster Size

[Ralph Armstrong]

Could someone explain what the cluster size is exactly.

 

I am guessing it is an allocation size (i.e. how much space gets allocated
at one time), but that is just my guess.  Filesystem performance appears to
improve with a larger cluster size set, suggesting that setting a larger
cluster size causes few locks on the filesystem during a write.
