SQLite: 35% Faster Than the Filesystem

Yeah I got absolutely crushed by this when trying to migrate a Windows Server 2016 machine to unRAID, whose filesystem is absolutely horrible when dealing with thousands of smaller files. Wiped out a month of work for NAS-related activities; we're back on Windows again.

Small-file performance was the main selling point of (v3) ReiserFS.

ReiserFS was really good. Too bad that nobody continued it. I’m not sure it was due to the original author story or due to it’s code being really hard to work with. But the FS was so much faster than ext3/4 on machines from 2000’. And I never lost a file with it. Something you cannot say about xfs or jfs. I’ve had to reinstall os so many times after system crash due to them getting corrupted.

Edward Shishkin has kept plugging away at Reiser4 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reiser4#History_of_Reiser4 .
