I would like to try using filesystems with 8K blocks, but I can't seem
to find anything about this in info explorer.
The file /usr/include/jfs/fsparam.h contains a line that goes:
#define BSIZE 4096 /* size of file system block (bytes) */
suggesting that it is hard-coded, but the the "Tested Mettle" column
of _UNIX Review_ shows performance stats for 512 1K 2K & 8K bytes per
block file systems.
How do you make an 8K filesystem? Can it be done without having the
source code to JFS?
