HFS vs. UFS
Authored by: nadig on Oct 11, '02 08:08:10PM

Have you considered having two partitions, with two different file systems?
As a matter of fact, and as you state, UNIX works better with flat filesystems like UFS, on the other hand, MacOS and applications developed for MacOS work best with HFS.

It's not about an ideology but rather optimizing for the task. I'm sure you won't use a Ferrari to pull you trailer nor won't you use a Range Rover to race Formula-1 races. Different tasks require different tools.

Hope that helps,
Christoph
