XFS has been proven at this scale on Linux for a very long time, is all.
the why rh do NOT support it in 32 bit? there're still system that should have to run on 32 bit:-(
32-bit machines have a 32-bit index into the page cache; on x86, that limits us to 16T for XFS, as well. So 32-bit is really not that interesting for large filesystem use.
If you need really scalable filesystems, I'd suggest a 64-bit machine.
i mean if you support xfs and think it's better then ext4 why not support it on rhel 32bit?
This is a question you should direct through Red Hat's support channels.
i'm just like to ask Erik's opinion (who seems to be the fs people at rh:-)
