[Linux-cachefs] CacheFS performance issue

Hi,

I did some testing on the performance of CacheFS with NFS by copying a
whole bunch of files from the NFS server to a client. Without CacheFS
on, it took around 70 secs. However, with CacheFS on, it took around
147 seconds!! An entry in 2005 stated that CacheFS suffered from the
fragmentation problem. I wondered if that's the problem.......

I am using kernel 2.6.17 with cachefilesd 0.3.
