Hi

Does ReiserFS V3 provide any control for the placement of files on
disk; something like policy modules for disk placement ?  clustering
of files for example ?

Thanks,
Ash

No. The only thing to control file placement is hash selection. But it
is rather about ordering names in a directory.

I have always intended to implement it someday, and to make major 
packing locality selectable from userspace, but I have not done so yet.

questions are along the lines "see Reiser4"..
