Subject: [PATCH 44/48] [GFS2] Faster gfs2_bitfit algorithm
From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@...hat.com>
This version of the gfs2_bitfit algorithm includes the latest
suggestions from Steve Whitehouse. It is typically eight to
ten times faster than the version we're using today. If there
is a lot of metadata mixed in (lots of small files) the
algorithm is often 15 times faster, and given the right
conditions, I've seen peaks of 20 times faster.
