From 90423c12001e9b7a8bf8ee3b56d5858c0a563867 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zdenek Kabelac Date: Mon, 5 Mar 2012 14:19:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fit thin pool metadata into 128MB If the lvcreate may decide some automagical values for a user, try to keep the pool metadata size into 128MB range for optimal perfomance (as suggested by Joe). So if the pool metadata size and chunk_size were not specified, try to select such values they would fit into 128MB size. --- WHATS_NEW | 1 + lib/config/defaults.h | 1 + tools/lvcreate.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- 3 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/WHATS_NEW b/WHATS_NEW index e7074b898..1fbea5a25 100644 --- a/WHATS_NEW +++ b/WHATS_NEW @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ Version 2.02.95 - ================================ + Try to fit thin pool metadata size into 128MB.
