Ext3 File System for performance in Windows
,----[ Quote ]
| As an idea that was sparked by using a shared Ext3 File System between a
| dual boot of Ubuntu and Windows, what would happen if you went as far as
| installing Windows-native games on that shared Ext3 partition? Think of the
| benefits: no need to defragment that massive Hard Disk of yours every now
| and again. This guide will update as I experiment more.
|
| [...]
|
| I think this idea would work very well for any program/game with a
| large amount of files, due to Ext3's more streamlined architecture.
|
| As I say, I'm just experimenting with this, but it's working very
| well.
