« on: June 14, 2008, 03:11 PM »
just got a mail: SFFS Version 4.20 will allow copying files in parallel. Now that's an interesting feature...

For that to be an advantage, you sorta need to be copying from two physical disks to two other physical disks - otherwise the read/write head seeking will kill performance.

This isn't the sffs you're talking about, it? (this one's on version 1.0, so i suppose it isn't).
So.. Exactly did you mean? I got a few thousand entries for SFFS and SFFS 4.20 :)
