Today my work machine graduated from Windows 11 to Ubuntu 24.04. The hardware hasn’t changed. I would have preferred Kubuntu. They gave me ext4 instead of btrfs. But my wishes there are nice-to-haves. What they gave me is a huge step!

Linux File Systems for Windows | Paragon Software Plug hard disk with ExtFS/Btrfs/XFS partitions and work with media on Windows.

I use and recommend this ext4 driver for Windows 11 (not free, and I am not a paid advertiser, just a satisfied user). I have not tested all of them out there. I love this, because "it just works" on my dual-boot Ubuntu 24.04. #Linux #Ext4 #Windows #Ubuntu www.paragon-software.com/home/linuxfs...

Linux 6.17 With EXT4 Showing Some Nice Performance Improvements With the Linux 6.17 kernel there are some block allocation scalability improvements for EXT4 on top of other file-system enhancements with this new kernel and other new features. Linux 6.17 performance has been looking good and when drilling down to the EXT4 file-system performance, it's looking extremely good. Here are some benchmarks of EXT4 on Linux 6.17 compared to the 6.15 and 6.16 stable kernels.

You can thank me; I finally moved to XFS 🤪

Thanks to Huawei’s Baokun Li, block allocation code now scales much better — great news for multi-core, container-heavy systems. Benchmarks show big gains in fallocate ops & reduced file fragmentation (with a small trade-off in free space).
