Author: Phillip Susi Revision Date: 2010-04-28 00:38:42 UTC Simple speed ups A few simple changes to make dump faster: 1) Have dumpblock() try to combine with the last block for larger reads 2) Have doslave() read the special blocks from the socket first, then go back and get the data blocks from the disk. 3) Use pread() instead of bread() which internally called ext2fs_llseek() and then read(). This also means it is no longer neccesary to reopen the device fd or close and reopen the ext2fs handle when the slave is started.
