RE: [PHP] stripping white space?

there is a limit of # of root entries. But the number of files per directory is much higher. Running RH6.2 I tried this test: I have an SGI xfs partition that does billion of entries per directory, like reiser, but for an ext2 partition this perl script is for testing for ($index = 1; $index <= 2097153; $index++) { open (OUT, "> file_$index.txt"); print OUT "Test\n"; close (OUT); } after letting it run 4 hours :) it seems to stop at 811626 where I run out of disk space :) oh well -----Original Message----- From: Christian Reiniger [mailto:creinig@mayn.de] Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2001 9:52 AM To: Maxim Maletsky; 'Bart Veldhuizen'; php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] stripping white space?

AFAIK there's no limit (and certainly not 1024 files), but with most filesystems accesses on large directories are painfully slow. FSs such as ReiserFS however don't slow down noticeably on large directories... -- Christian Reiniger LGDC Webmaster (http://lgdc.sunsite.dk/) I sat laughing snidely into my notebook until they showed me a PC running Linux.
