Subject: Maximum files per Directory
Date: Tue, 01 May 2001 22:48:02 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <272800000.988750082@hades> (raw)
While trying to create 100.000 (in words: one hundred thousand) Mailboxes
with
cyrus-imapd i ran into problems.
At about 2^15 files the filesystem gave up, telling me that there cannot be
more files in a directory.
Is this a vfs-Issue or an ext2-issue?
