You can estimate reiser4 filesystem fragmentation, packingm etc. structures by using it. .SH COMMON OPTIONS .TP .B -V, --version prints program version. .TP .B -?, -h, --help prints program help. .TP .B -y, --yes assumes an answer 'yes' to all questions. .TP .B -f, --force forces measurefs to use whole disk, not block device or mounted partition. .TP .B -c, --cache N sets tree cache node number to passed value. This affects very much behavior of libreiser4. It affects speed, tree allocation, etc. .SH MEASUREMENT OPTIONS .TP .B -S, --tree-stat shows different tree statistics (node packing, internal nodes, leaves, etc) .TP .B -T, --tree-frag measures total tree fragmentation. The result is fragmentation factor - value from 0.00000 (minimal fragmentation) to 1.00000 (maximal one). Most probably, this factor may affect sequential read performance. .TP .B -D, --data-frag measures average files fragmentation. This means, that fragmentation of each file in filesystem will be measured separately and results will be averaged. The result is fragmentation factor - value from 0.00000 (minimal fragmentation) to 1.00000 (maximal one). .sp 1 Note, that for the fresh filesystem (created not very long time ago) and even fully filled by data, this value will be pretty small. .TP .B -F, --file-frag FILE measures fragmentation of the specified file. The result is fragmentation factor - value from 0.00000 (minimal fragmentation) to 1.00000 (maximal one). Note, that fragmentation of a small file (depends of used tail policy), which consists of tail items, is not very reliable value. That is because, they is always afoot due to balancing. .sp 1 Examples: .sp 1 measurefs.reiser4 -F /usr/bin /dev/hda2 .br measurefs.reiser4 -F /bin/bash /dev/hda2 .TP .B -E, --show-file show file fragmentation for each file if --data-frag is specified. .SH PLUGIN OPTIONS .TP .B -p, --print-profile prints the plugin profile. This is the set of default plugins used for all parts of a filesystem -- format, nodes, files, directories, hashes, etc. If --override is specified, then prints modified plugins. .TP .B -l, --print-plugins prints all plugins libreiser4 know about. .TP .B -o, --override TYPE=PLUGIN, ... overrides the default plugin of the type "TYPE" by the plugin "PLUGIN" in the plugin profile. .sp 1 Examples: .sp 1 measurefs.reiser4 -o nodeptr=nodeptr41,hash=rupasov_hash /dev/hda2 .RS .SH REPORTING BUGS Report bugs to .SH SEE ALSO .BR debugfs.reiser4(8), .BR mkfs.reiser4(8), .BR fsck.reiser4(8) .SH AUTHOR This manual page was written by Yury Umanets
