Best strategy for saving huge amount of small files

[Robotbeat]

Yeah, I think it's XFS, which has variable block size (can be good for small files). Does Open-E have any tuning parameters that can help optimize for many small files? We have a customer who's looking to use the open-e box as a storage pool to store lots (millions) of small (~16KB) files.

BTW, he's interesting in using it as a NAS, not as an iSCSI box (although we'd probably just get him the DSS version).
