That's an interesting question. I've done a lot of filesystem benchmarks
lately, but I haven't tested that. The -n option for Bonnie++ kan make
use of hard or softlinks instead of using normal files.
I'll see if I can run some tests and share the results. This will take
several days though, because my testhardware is fairly slow.
