[Lustre-discuss] fast traverse

[Mag Gam]

I have a filesystem with over 1m directories which are filled with
hourly temperatures of a controller environment for years. They are
being hosted on our lustre filesystem, and I constantly do a a fstat()
and fstat64() to get the directory's create time. I was wondering if
there is a way to speed this operation? Is it possible for me to
increase the mds cache? Are there any tricks I can perform to speed
this operation up?

TIA
