AW: mysqld on jffs2: MyISAM Index write is slow

[Jochen Karrer]

Hi,
mysql writes a 1024 Byte block to the index file for every row. I suspect
that this
block is very similar to the block which is already on disk. Is there some
way to
tell jffs2 to compare the block with the old one and write only the
differences ?
