Another ocfs2 performance bug

Hi guys,

Reading all the files in a big directory tree takes at least four times
as long on ocfs2 as ext3.

# ocfs2: Copy a kernel tree to /dev/null
mount -tocfs2 /dev/hdb /big
time find /big/linux-2.6.16-rc3 -type f -exec cp {} /dev/null \;

real 1m54.933s <===
user 0m0.896s
sys 0m1.844s

time find /big/linux-2.6.16-rc3 -type f -exec cp {} /dev/null \;

real 0m14.301s
user 0m5.172s
sys 0m9.093s

# ext3: Copy a kernel tree to /dev/null
mount -text3 /dev/hdb /big
time find /big/linux-2.6.16-rc3 -type f -exec cp {} /dev/null \;

real 0m23.899s <===
user 0m4.672s
sys 0m9.513s

time find /big/linux-2.6.16-rc3 -type f -exec cp {} /dev/null \;

real 0m14.198s
user 0m5.168s
sys 0m8.977s

Regards,

Daniel
