Subject: hundreds of mount --bind mountpoints?
Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2001 12:32:45 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3AE307AD.821AB47C@linuxjedi.org> (raw)
Hi,
I'm still working on a packaging system for diskless (quasi-embedded)
devices. The root filesystem is all tmpfs, and I attach packages inside
it. Since symlinks in a tmpfs filesystem cost 4k each (ouch!), I'm
considering using mount --bind for everything. This appears to use very
little memory, but I'm wondering if I'll run into problems when I start
having many hundreds of bind mountings. Any feel for this?
regards,
David
