/Spam/ [Xitami] Xitami performance regarding directory structures

[John Jonas]

n
dealing with large numbers of image files on a NTFS formatted volume. =

Converting the volume to FAT-32 gets a really dramatic performance
improvement.

No numbers on this, only observation of the way Windows Explorer displays=
 the
volume. =

can always be retrieved in less than 500 ms (PIII 600MHz with windows 200=
