File System: Reiser

File System: Reiser



The Reiser file system is an alternative to the ext3 file system. Like ext3, Reiser utilizes journaling to make crash recovery very fast. However, Reiser is a completely different file system from ext2 and ext3, using a dramatically different internal structure. This allows the Reiser file system to support a larger maximum file size of 8TB and maximum volume size of 16TB. In addi-tion, the structure of Reiser allows it to perform much faster than ext2 or ext3.
