Hi all,
I’m pretty much lame with QNX - sorry…
I’m using a 206MHz PPC405 based board with qnx 6.2 and the flash is accessed trough the generic fs
(devf-generic). So my question is:
Is it a compressed filesystem?
Is it a journaling fs?
If yes - how heavy is the CPU load for compression/joyrnaling?
Can this be a performance problem on the 206MHz power pc?
Where can I find some more detailed info on the qnx and flash filesystems coming with the neutrino
kernel?

Yes and no. Compressed files will be transparently de-compressed,
but compression won’t be done on writes.
Is it a journaling fs?
No.

No load for journalling. No load for compression (not done).
Decompression is relatively cheap.

Generally not an issue.

QNX (online) documentation – System Architecture guide is a good place
to start on QNX overall.
